Look for large max resolution, low response time, quality name brand manufacturer, higher contrast ratio....etc.

To give you an idea of what I look for, see my link to a review of my Asus VK246H monitor. I was not looking for a gaming monitor, just something to keep an eye on some processes. It actually turns out to be a very good gaming monitor. I'm sure there's something out there that's better especially since it was released in Nov./Dec. 2008.
