Hey guys, I know this isn't the most fair comparison....but which monitor would you go with? The BenQ XL2420T or ASUS VG278HE?
I'm currently in a dilemma right now...I have the ASUS on order at Amazon...but estimated delivery time is mid October....I simply can't wait that long!! I'm really interested in that monitor because its suppose to take the crown with it's epic 144hz refresh rate....but now I'm kind of looking around for other options.
The BenQ has really caught my attention, as its priced $110 below the Asus...it is a smaller panel at 24 inches, but that doesn't bother me when we are talking 1080p resolution for both panels....and I guess I could sacrifice the extra 24hz, as CallSignVega said in his review, the extra bump in refresh rate isn't whoa, like making the jump from 60-120hz....my main concern however, is the BenQ really bad in color/image quality? I read a few reviews and people gave it negative criticism due to it's inaccurate colors and bad image quality...I also read that the monitor lags and ghosts too?

I also read some newegg and Amazon reviews....funny thing is, all 11 Amazon reviews gave it a 5 star....Newegg reviews look very positive as well....so I'm not sure who to believe? I primarily game, but I really don't want my youtube or HD movie experience to look like complete a$$. I also don't want websites like reading OCN to be a complete pain to my eyes
Let me know what you guys think....if I should stick with the ASUS....or make the switch to BenQ and don't worry too much about the negative reviews
