I do like the idea of the 27" but I also occasionally get headache and motion sickness after an hour or two of gaming so maybe the 120hz is the way to go ? but my pc is getting a bit old now,
Athlon II x4 640 @ 3.00Ghz
1Tb HDD
4 Gig Memory
Radeon HD 5700
Will my pc be able to run any games @ 120Hz

If I go for the 120hz model will this make any difference with the Ps3, can it go to 120hz?
and will the extra 3" between the 24"and the 27" make much difference to my gaming on the pc and Ps3.
 
well they are the same res, so unless you sit far away you'll get a crisper picture with the 24". I think 120Hz is just for 3D really, so if you wont be using that then its not worth it.
You can get much cheaper 24" monitors!
 
Ild deff go for the AOC . on paper the benQ only has the advantage of the 120 hz , Dont think it will make any difference with PS3 and unless your gaming card can keep close to the monitors frame rate , then your prob experiance motion blur . Anything even an old big telly can do at 50-60 hz can produce smooth motion and is faster than the eye to notice the changing frame rates . Me think its best to have me graphics card more powefull than the framerate rather than the other way around .
