HP 27xi, AOC i2757fh, or ViewSonic VX2770Smh-LED

I'm stuck between these 3 monitors. The HP 27xi AOC i2757fh or the Viewsonic VX2770SMH-LED 27

They all look similar, but I'm just not sure which one to get. I'm leaning toward the HP 27xi though, but this site rated the AOC i2757fh a little higher over the HP 27xi. I'd like to hear some feedback from you guys.

My main usage is playing games like BF3/BF4, SWTOR and Titanfall when it comes out. I also do a lot of web surfing and occasional movie watcher on this monitor. My current monitor is a 24 inch Asus VW246H and I like it, but I don't love it. So my main concern is how well it displays games. I don't want any ghosting and the least amount of input lag I can find. Now, I know the AOC boasts a slightly quicker response time of 5ms vs the HP's 7 seconds, but the reviews I've read thus far state there is no visual lag from the HP. What do you guys suggest? Thanks in advance!
 
There aren't too many people that make a 1080p 27" IPS panel, so it wouldn't shock me if all 3 monitors use the exact same one. They all have pretty basic non-adjustable stands as well.

Given how similar all 3 are, I'd get the one that costs the least (AOC).
 
There are actually more than you might think. There are 8 or 9 that I know of, but I've narrowed it down to 3. Thanks for your response.

I don't think you quite understood my post. Yes, there are plenty of people who sell an assembled 27" 1080p IPS monitor. However, they're all using the same 27" 1080p panel. The panel is the actual LCD display that you look at. HP, AOC, and Viewsonic do not make LCD panels, they buy them and put them into a chassis with I/O, power supply, etc. put a warranty on it, and sell it to retailers.

The main quality characteristics of the monitor are determined by the panel, with the chassis providing niceties like an adjustable stand, fancy OSD, and number of inputs. Since all 3 monitors you picked out are the same in those areas, including the panel, you might as well get the least expensive one.
