Why 2? 120Hz for video or desktop usage while you play is useless. The Asus is 144hz and cheaper than BenQ's 120 so that would be the obvious choice.


If you want to be a big spender, grab a 27"

$120 more for 3 inches? WTF

I highly recommend 144 over 120 as well.

I would get 27, but a review said there was 6 ms delay. Thoughts? Also, what's a good mechanical keyboard.

Good Mechanical Keyboards will come with Cherry MX switches, instead of ALPS, or Plunger based ones. Here is a pic explaining the differences.

I prefer Black, while other in the clan have Blue.

Basically you want durability over anything so read reviews about failures and return policies. The Steelseries 6Gv2 has lasted me 3+ years now and I will buy another one if it dies.


Like I said earlier your current G400 mouse is among the top echelon of Mice. You will be hard pressed to find better performance/quality/consumer support from another company. Corsair is putting there money into too many products and besides their PSUs have been crashing in the quality department.

I have a Razer Blackwidow with blue switches. It's really loud. I'd like to get red or black. I've been told that blue has a pretty high force needed to activate but I don't notice anything. I don't accidentally press keys, so I guess that's a good thing.

They're actually one of the lowest to press. The thing about blues is that the actuation point is lower than the release point, so you have to lift your key above where you had to push it down to release it, so it's not generally recommended for gamers who play games that require a ton of really fast key presses.

You should read Amaroq's Complete Beginners guide for the parts you are wanting to buy, she links to a lot of good options for everything and discusses specifics of what you should be looking for.

Also, I just purchased the ASUS 144hz monitor. Buy it off NewEgg and then use their Iron Egg guarantee to have them Price match credit you for the Amazon price which is cheaper. Amazon will charge you $20 tax and NewEgg will not, which means you pay $270 from either place but you end up with a $20 gift card to use later at NewEgg.
