Monitor For Non-Competitive Gaming

[azeem40]

I want a monitor that has good color quality, LED backlit, 60Hz (I am not interested in 120Hz for non-competitive gaming), and nice ergonomic features like pivot, swivel, and high adjustments. My budget is $350 or less.

The games I play are BF3, Skyrim, Emulators such as PS2, PS1, NDS, GBA, etc, and RuneScape. I plan to run eyefinity in the future, so a thin bezel is preferred. I will be using a CF Radeon 7850 and an i5-2500k with an 850W XFX Silver-rated PSU.

Thanks all!

Might as well go with the U2412M with a $350 budget. It often goes for $300 on sale.

So you are saying Gaming on a 60Hz with BF3 etc. is what?

I will not be playing against players online, so no competitive play. It's simple as that.

Guess I will have to go with the U2312HM if no one has any more suggestions.

The U2412M is definitely worth the extra $30.

You get a 24" instead of a 23" and 1920x1200 as opposed to 1920x1080.

The U2312hm can be typically found ~$200 when sales come around; about once a month. The U2412m can be typically found ~$300 when sales come around; about once a month.

Yep. Right now the 2412 is on sale for $329, while the 2312 is not on sale ($299).
