looking for new monitor lg 24ea53vq vs iiyama X2483HsU

[sosen]

I'm looking for new monitor 24" and I'm thinking about those two:

lg 24ea53vq-p
http://www.lg.com/hk_en/monitors/lg-24EA53VQ
iiyama x2483hsu
http://www.iiyama.com/gl_en/products/prolite-x2483hsu-1/

I have samsung 943n, unfortunetly 8 months after the warranty one of the lightubes have died and the second one is going to die soon. Now I'm using very bad lighted monitor, it looks so nice I'm using my computer for movies, games, internet, reading etc. so it should looking good nad no smearing/ghosting. I became interested in matrices ah- ips and amva + because they have a better representation of colors. I've seen on yt movies that iiyama monitor has no problem with uneven lighting and sparkling effect(I don't know if I chosen the good english word for it, I mean the effect when in dark room on very high angle yoy see violet/or some other colur instead of black).I've read opinions and mojority claim they don't notice smearing/ghosting. My previous monitor has 5 ms gtg (and probably 10 ms btb , because the customer service wrote this monitor has 5ms white to black ) and I havn't noticed smering/ghosting, I could normally play games and watch movies.LG didn't wrote ma about btb reaction time. Iiyama has 12 ms btb, their monitor has overdrive function with 3 levels: lv1 6ms gtg, lv2 5 ms gtg, lv3 4 ms gtg.

I'm interested in your opinions , and maybe some other suggestions , although I doubt they will appear in this price category . Do not write about EIZO monitors, they are great, but they are too expensive, even with a 5 year warranty.

My advice: keep saving then in March/April buy the ROG 1440p 120 MHz G-Sync enabled 27" beast!

I don't reckon I'll buy iiyama again because they just go dim for no reason. I can't go into the bios settings with this one* because it assumes that my screen is nearly all black and therefore the white text can be turned off too. That means I can't select operating system either as it dims out the part that asks me so I have to wait 30 seconds and get the default, unless I guess.

It's some sort of energy saving thing that means my monitor uses 1% less energy while making me spend 200% longer doing anything.

It can be turned back off for a few hours until it turns itself back on, by pressing one or more of "auto", onion, windows8 and "menu" buttons, along with a fifth that cancels any progress you randomly guessed your way to. Total rubbish.

(* - one of three, all of which are the iiyama ones and all do this so they're crippled deliberately. It's like the Windows8 of monitor design.)
