Looking for a couple of new monitors as well. Might have to make a few purchases between now and Christmas since I am getting a nice severance package from my job on Dec 1 and starting my new job on Dec 2 with a raise.

Soon to be released, Samsung's 1ms 27" P2770FH: http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/monitors/LS27EFHKUF/ZA

It's 60hz, just like every other normal priced monitor. But this model has a ridiculously fast response time for such a large display (27"), and you want ridiculously fast response time for gaming, especially for Aces High 2. It's also said to have an LED backlight. I'm going to buy one of these for testing when they are released.

If you want something real special, then you may want to look at getting a 120hz display.

Both AMD and Nvidia have cards which can run 3 monitors without any additonal hardware now.

But why would you want to buy additonal hardware when the newer graphics cards have the ability to run 3 displays right out of the box?
