True 120Hz LED monitors?

What are currently available monitors that are true 120Hz and use LED backlight? Looking in 22-24" range.
 
I have a BenQ 120HZ LED backlit monitor and it is GREAT if that gives you any idea. I's a gaming monitor so not sure what your really looking for.
 
LED backlights aren't necessarily better. The Dell U2311h uses CCFL and not only does it have LED-like power consumption when calibrated properly (less than 30W, maybe around 40W when uncalibrated) but it has better color gamut as well.

LEDs are great if you have RGBLED to get ultra high color gamut or if you want a TV with dynamic backlighting. For a computer monitor though, at least at this point, it shouldn't be a deal breaker in your purchase.
 
BenQ's XL2410T is the only LED true 120Hz monitor I know of, although LED backlighting isn't necessarily a reason to go for one monitor over a CCFL backlit one.

That being said, the BenQ has several other strengths that I find far more valuable than its LED backlighting, which really only leads to slightly less power and heat for its size.

However its these advantages that make the BenQ relatively expensive compared to other true 120Hz monitors of similar size.
 
I read some negative reviews of the Benq regarding bad blacklight bleeding. I ended up going with the LG w2363d, which kicks ass (except for the menu buttons which suck, but who cares).

All the bad reviews were the initial models. Since the 005 Revision they've gotten a LOT better.

The LG, while fast, has poor colors, viewing angles and isn't the greatest. Although it's all relative.
