I'm really looking to get the $700 27 inch asus monitor. Right now I have a 660 Ti, I don't think that will suffice for 1440p gaming. I'm looking to play Witcher 2, BF3 etc. at at least medium settings at that resolution. I was eying a 7970 but just want to post here before I pull the trigger.

Yes the 7970 would be the best option at that resolution. It's but is larger than the GTX 680's (384 bit vs 256 bit) and so it would not be hit as hard when playing at a higher resolution.

I've heard mixed reviews about those monitors. Some are delighted and some not. The price is incredible and it may be worth taking the chance. There are various models and deals from those Korean manufacturers with pixel guarantees and replacement guarantees. Some only support dual link DVI but lately I've seen some with other connections. I'm seriously thinking about one because I can't afford an HP or Asus.
