A list of 120hz monitors and most seem to be out of stock. Apparently the Samsung are the creme de la creme and my only options are benq or asus

click here VG248QE and BENQ XL2411T only ones being in my price range.

Their specs are pretty much the same in regards to pixel pitch, cdm and contract ratio. Only the Benq has lower power consumption and i found it cheaper.

What i would like to know;

Is the Benq and Asus monitors i selected the only option for me in that price range?

Which one would you recommend over the other and why?

Why are there not more 120hz monitors on the market and in stock?

How do i know if i need a dual link dvi cable or it would be happy with a standard one?

IMO both those are better than Samsung esp. for 120/ in addition to 144HZ.

At least they will have good caps in them.

I have an old samsung 2233rz 1680x1050 and a vg248qe.
The asus has nicer features but the colours on the 2233rz are so much better.

The 2233rz is a bit of an exception to the norm, mine has reasonably accurate colors (plus several orders of magnitude more eye pleasing than any benq) when calibrated and gorgeously deep blacks, just a shame you can see the dithering due to being a 6bit panel relatively easily. Shame Samsung didn't just do a 1920x update of it with a little better input latency, etc. instead of their promising but sadly flawed later models.
