I'm im a clinch, i cannot seem to find a monitor suitable for me. Im now comparing these two monitors:

Acer P235Hbmid Black 23

and
ASUS VH242H Black 23.6
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236052

I'm going to primarily use this monitor for gaming. The Acer is glossy screen which i like, however i did the math on the reviews and 14% of all the reviewers had at least 1 dead/stuck pixel. This monitors acclaimed contrast ratio is higher than that of the Asus, but im not so sure you cane even tell the difference between 50,000:1ACM and 20,000:1ASCR.

The asus has a much better review, however the finish is matte and the like stated above the contrast ratio is lower. The screen is a bit larger, seems to have a much lower dead pixel rate than that of the acer. what would you guys choose? I would have already gotten the acer, but the dead pizel rate is making me hesitant.
