Requirements: 1980x1020, 160$ maximum. 170$ maximum if free shipping. Must be Newegg.
Currently looking at these three:

My notes:
All are 5ms, 1920x1080, and in the same relative price range.
Sceptre is the cheapest but has reported backlight bleed problems. However I am not one to withdraw from a challenge as there are guides to fix backlight bleeding on the net. The Spectre also has free shipping while the other two do not, further downing the price.
The AoC is .5" larger than the other two, but this isn't a huge difference. The AoC is also the only one to list its panel type, though I imagine they're all TFT, however the Acer lists a lot more specifications than the other two.
The Acer is also the only one with an HDMI port. I may or may not care about this since I use DVI-D, but it may be nice to switch. I do have a DVI-D to HDMI converter around, since my HD4870 1GB Dark Knight doesn't have an HDMI port.
The AoC is glossy. Not sure how I feel about that.
Edit: Use: Gaming. Viewing angle shouldn't be an issue as I'll be sitting right in front of it. Let me know if any further information is needed. =/
