    I've been looking around at new monitors to upgrade my current 24" 1080p display up to a 27" or 30" 1440p display. It's primarily for gaming and multitasking on a split-screen (Windows 8 style), so I don't need extreme color accuracy like those who use them for professional Photoshop for their work. On the same note, a 20 ms response time would be noticeable in a shooter, so I'm trying to avoid that. So far the best deal I've really come across is here. Does anyone have any experience with high resolution IPS monitors they'd like to share, or anything they'd consider a bit better (reliability is a factor here) of a deal?

    I've tried to stay away from the Korean open box panels, as I've heard stories of them crapping out consistently within eighteen months with dead pixels all over the place. If I'm dropping five to seven hundred dollars, I don't want to worry about having to replace this for at least three years.

    Any other suggestions?

    Dell Ultrasharp series (U27xx and U30xx) have some nice options I think. They're IPS and some have the resolution you need. I've got a 1080p 21.5" model that's been great, and I've mostly heard good things about their larger models.
