Can't decide between 2 monitors?

u2410 is nonsense for gaming. Go for the u2412m instead, for photographers it's a step down for gamers it's a step up (and a huge price difference!). You don't have to believe me though, the tftcentral.co.uk u2412m review highlights the differences quite well. Perhaps the price difference is already enough to make up your mind? 3 * £110 could buy you an overpriced stand for the entire thing even.

Overpriced as in generally overpriced, not to suggest it's cheaper elsewhere or to criticize OC UK in any way.

The two are really quite different monitors.
ips panels aren't the best for gaming I gather. The response times are generally better for tn angels and tn panels have less ghosting. Combined with the better refresh rate then the benq is probably better for gaming.
That said, the dell is better for every day use because of the nicer panel with better viewing angles and more vertical pixels.
Also I agree that the 2412 is much better value than the 2410.

Thanks guys I didn’t realise the cheaper dell was a newer model..
As for 3x30” I’m not sure, I had been using 3 Hanns-g 27.5” monitors and they did work well just had to turn my head a little too much lol.. I was just thinking 3x 24” at 5760x1200 would be better plus I can find a triple monitor stand for them easy unlike anything bigger..
The other problem is as much as I like the 30” screen I hate the glare you get from the ips, it’s like I always have a shadow over me and 3 screens doing that may just p*** me off lol.. only because it shouldn’t at that price :s
