Best gaming Displays?

Dell u2312hm.
 
Very good colours, good blacks, very fast response times, aspect ratio options in osd and fantastic viewig angles. It is an ips panel after all.
+ downsampling works on it like a charm

120hz is something worth looking at.
 
Recently I bought an Eizo Foris FS2333 and very content with it. Had been struggling with an Asus PA238Q and Iiyama ProLite B2280WSD-B1. Asus had terrible bleed and the Iiyama's colours just weren't right. The Eizo does great straight out the box. Only real drawback is the limited height adjustment. A lot of money for a display but worth it.

I really love the Samsung Syncmaster series.
Exceptional picture quality, full RGB, deep whites and blacks.
Just marvelous to game and work with

Yamakasi Catleap 2B. 27", IPS, 2560x1440 resolution, 120+ Hz refresh rate. Only downside is the absolutely massive amount of GPU power/VRAM it takes to hit 120FPS@1440p. We're talking dual 670s or a 780 for BF3, and that's with AA turned down. Definitely a future-proof monitor though.

Barring that, get something with LightBoost. Too bad the only ones I've found are 1080p...

Right now you have to compromise. Either you get an IPS panel with poor motion handling and good color, or a Lightboost (TN) panel with the best motion of any display you can buy.
Lightboost is limited to PC gaming though. The best alternative is one of the new Sony LCD TVs with its "Impulse" mode.

Thanks for all the recommendation guys. Last week a friend told me i can use his BenQ display, since he upgraded to another one. Quality is pretty fair, i think i can live with it until i can afford an expensive one. 
 
I have a small list of favorites.

I have the XL2720T.  I love 27" / 120Hz for BF3 (had to upgrade to a 6-core Intel to maintain 100+ fps).  For anything other than gaming, the monitor is absolutely horrible.  For example, I'm on a 27" iMac for work and it destroys the BenQ in every way EXCEPT for gaming.

Why would you need 100+ fps? 60+ is fine IMO. YMMV of course but just wondering.

What , I have 2011 - 3930k myself and there are only a handful of games which support more than quad core.
A iMac is having a 2560*1440 display it obviously is better for productivity.
Now I just think you are a troll :)

I went from a 2600K to the 3930K.  64-player multiplayer BF3 went from 60fps minimums to 100fps minimums.  Definitely not trolling, read this: http://chipreviews.com/main-feature/main-news/frostbite-2s-limit-6-core-performance-in-battlefield-3/5/
 

 
Also, I absolutely agree with you about the iMac, that's what I said as well.  It destroys the BenQ in every way except gaming.

Nobody needs 100+ fps, it's just a lot smoother and I prefer it.  Plus you don't get the lightboost benefit under 100fps.
