It's sad, I don't actually know what kind of monitors I have half the time. The best I can remember at the moment is a pair of Benq's.. I do know I like them. despite one having a single dead pixel in the screen that I had to replace.

Craigslist monitors, they're super cheap right now, can get 1080x1920 monitors for like sub $100.
I would prefer new to used. I was thinking 24" 1080 60hz with IPS. I don't want to spend more than $200 each so I dont think 120hz is an option and im not even sure the IPS panel is.
I've craigslisted like 3 monitors so far, only great success so far. Just brought my laptop to test um out real quick.
But even if you don't want used, you can easily find monitors with ips panel for around 150. Dunno if you can find any 120hz ones without going to 200+
Well that's good news! the thing is I want two of the same monitor so it might be harder to find on craigslist but I'll keep my eyes open and be more open to the idea of buying from there. Do you have an example of a 24" 1920x1080 60hz with IPS for <$200? it would be much appreciated. I'm kinda winging it now and having trouble finding one with what I want.
I'd also consider 120hz without the IPS. TN is faster anyway right?
I had bought this one. Some caveats. No Vesa mounts, but IIRC they sell brackets with vesa mounts for it. Also has glossy screen, but they also sell ones with matte screen ,but different model name. I got it for 75 off craigs list :D
eventually I'll pull the trigger on getting 3 monitors...
