First because it's Asus - I use a lot of Asus parts and I find them to be very reliable.
Second - 2ms response time
Third - even though it's a TN panel, unless you are going to be gaming from the side, I don't think that "issue" makes any difference.
Fourth - I have an IPS that I use for daily driver - when I game, I move to a non-glossy TN

I had an Acer monitor, but had some problems with it - may not be reflective of the brand as a whole, but it kinda put me off on them.

No experience with the Benq, but I've heard good things about them. I'm just very comforable with Asus.
