Personally I think that
this is a fantastic monitor. I have a 24" version and playing games is fantastic on it, will hopefully get a second edition soon. It is a good quality monitor as it is manufactured by BenQ, it is LED which means the backlight will produce truer colours, and it is a lovely thin, smart monitor with a native resolution of 1920x1080, plus 4ms response time which is very good. You also get a two year warranty with it. I think the refresh rate is 60Hz which to me is fine but if you are a hardcore gamer and like vsync turned on then this may not be the monitor for you, but I don't know a lot of people who use the vsnc in-game option.
