New monitor this week, suggestions?

Your eye won't see a difference between 60 Hz and 120 Hz (not mega hertz).

I'd wait for a Newegg sale to be honest. Once a week or so they have ridiculous deals on monitors.

Some people swear they can see a difference between 60 and 120 Hz but I wouldn't invest in a 120 Hz setup until you've seen one in person.

It all depends on types of games you're going to play and will your PC be able to run them at 120 FPS (even if it takes less than that to notice the difference).

I would personally go for screen size, resolution and quality. I personally got myself Achieva Shimian, also known as one of "Korean monitors" which are essentially 27'' LG panels that are not A+ and thus not good enough for big names like Dell and Apple. However, they are perfectly fine 27'' 2560x1440 S-IPS panels (grade A or A-) encased by local Korean companies and shipped worldwide for about $300-350 total. Going for Dell or Apple of same size would cost you over $700.

120 Hz is for 3D and watching movies. Movies are shot at 24p so with a 120 Hz monitor it would divide and distribute the frames more evenly

I can distinglish the difference between 60 Hz and 120 Hz when watching movies but in gaming there is no difference

I would buy a quality 24 inch 60 Hz Dell IPS monitor, A+ panel. For a larger screen it is cheaper to buy a HDTV

24, 27 is a workout

The Playstation 3d Display is an awesome monitor for the money. 240 hz, supposedly, but your computer will think it's only 60, so YMMV. Mine was 100 bucks.

120hz is nice and all but I would rather go with a IPS screen personally for better colors, viewing angles, etc...

Info

Dell makes decent ones for fair prices I think, worth checking out.
