The Acer monitor that you linked seems like a good choice. Acer generally don't make bad monitors, at least I've never seen or experienced one. A lot of members on here swear by them.

If you can, I'd get a Samsung (assuming it fits in your budget), they're the most recommended monitors, and for a good reason: They're awesome.

I'm going to be getting a Samsung 23" soon, and I can't wait.

If you can't find any good deals, just stick with the Acer, it's a solid deal for a monitor with great specs.

I recommend Hanns.G 1080p displays. I'm running two of them, the 25" (paid $190 Newegg) and the 28" (paid $290 Newegg). Good quality monitors with great picture and integrated speakers.
