Samsung S27B350H 27" LED Monitor is what I have and love, but I'm sure someone else here will tell you it sucks balls.

I thought IPS monitors were supposed to be the best, but I've seen lots of people on here recommending LEDs

I had that Samsung too and absolutely loved it. I sold it and bought 2 Dell IPS panels but I totally recommend the Samsung.

What I bought. Make sure you have enough of a GPU to push the 1440 res.

Better than telling him to buy some non-IPS, non 120hz, 1080p monitor for $350

I picked mine up on sale for under $300.

I won't buy off brand monitors. The build quality usually sucks. We bought some off brand monitors for my office and they all died within 6 months.

Doesn't matter who actually makes the panels. Things like build quality, power supplies, etc... suffer in these off brands.

I will be shopping for a new monitor before BF4 is released (and a new card). I've been trying to research what is best for gaming 120hz or 60hz. ISP vs Non ISP. There is so much variance in people's opinions, what does the GB here say.

27" Dell

Pony up the extra cash and get this. Worth every penny.
