I currently have an Acer 23.6" monitor. For the price, you can't really go wrong. My biggest gripe with it is the refresh rate/response time. Obviously 60hz is old news, but the 5ms response time on mine seems a bit overrated...Games like Far Cry 3 or anything with a lot of trees and grass in the environment make my monitor seem like an old LCD with a response time of 20ms+...the ghosting with all that foliage really makes my brain hurt sometimes.

but FC3 has motion blur as part of its graphics, so you need to confirm that taking a screenshot while you're moving shows up different than what you see in realtime

on top of that, lower ms doesnt solve the blur caused by our eyes, the only way is to insert a black flicker
 
Give me a 1440p@60Hz for that price pls.
