Monitor and HDMI worth it?

[bbezzina73]

Is it worth paying $40 more for a response time of 1ms instead of 2ms and for an extra HDMI port?

I'm comparing these two:

and

The other difference would be the physical appearance of the monitor. Other than that, would you go for the vx24h for an extra 40?

You wouldn't likely see the difference between the refresh rates. As for HDMI, unless you have two HDMI devices in addition to your PC (I recommend DVI for your PC) then there's no point.
