I'm currently using a Samsung 22" screen at home (forgotten model number) with a resolution of 1680x1050.

I'm wanting to upgrade to either a 24" or 27" screen but can't decide which.

The BenQ 27" does look nice:

but I'd quite like a screen with a height adjustable stand - Or am I limiting my choices to "Dell only" if I go down that route?

It'll be mostly only used for gaming, and I'm not bothered on any resolution higher than 1920x1080 for now.

Anyone help out with suggestions, and help avoid my confusion?

(Budget isn't really too much of a concern, I want to get the right screen for me)
 
Righto, so after a chunk of my morning reading up, I think 24" is the most sensible for me, 27" would probably have to be wall-mounted and I'd rather not.

So this BenQ screen is looking good:

I've this graphics card:

Does the Dual-Link DVI port on the card mean that I'd only need to use the standard cable that comes with the BenQ to hook it up to be able to get full 120Hz?

Cheers
