Physical Size (Diagonal): 24 inch
Resolution(s) You'll Consider: 1600x1200+, preferably 1920x1080

Panel Type(s) Desired: (e.g.: TN, PVA, IPS) TN or IPS
LED Backlight: Not sure about importance in gaming monitors
Speakers: Indifferent

Additional Comments: My graphic card is Ati Radeon HD 6850, and I'm mostly buying new monitor for playing Guild Wars 2.
So far, my choices are Acer 24" http://www.ebuyer.com/276423-acer-s240hlbid-lcd-led-24-hdmi-monitor-et-fs0he-005# and Samsung 23.6"http://www.ebuyer.com/387133-s24b300hl-23-6-inch-widescreen-led-monitor-1920-x-1080-full-hd-5ms-ls24b300hl-en#
I couldn't find any direct comparison between those two, but i read Samsung usually has more lively colours. As for other features, like brightness, pixel pitch, LED backlight etc. I have no idea how important they are for gaming or are they at all.
