Hey guys, I have just finished building my computer I'll post the specs below. I currently have the benq 24 inch rts gaming monitor. I live in Australia and bought it for $160 however it has broken and is faulty so I can get a new one or get a new screen and put the money towards it. My current screen is 60hz and I was contemplating a 120hz. Despite the speculation on the difference after sifting through numerous reviews I personally notice the difference but I can't seem to find any for under $400 unless I go for a 23 inch. Anyway I heard that if your getting under 60fps it won't make a difference and with my current specs I'm not sure what frame rates to expect so am unsure iF its worth forking out extra $200 for a better screen. My current specs are:PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

I would be playing game titles like bf4, cod ghost, league of legends, world of warcraft, need for speed titles, crysis 1,2,3 and Rome total war 2 preferably on the highest obtainable settings. So basically is it worth getting a better screen? If so what do you recommend if you could include links keeping in mind I'm Aussie would be appreciated. And also the cheapest. Also considering an Asus 23 inch 120hz 2ms response but am unsure if it's worth going for 23 or 24 inch. Sorry for the long post cheers.
 
To solve my own problem, just heard of new screen technology being released in 2014 which will drop the price of these higher 120 HZ screens... I'm assuming so I will just wait with my current screen.
