Between AOC i2757FH IPS LED, Qnix QX2710 Evolution II 27" Glossy and Crossover IPS LCD 27".
Qnix - Amazon.
Crossover - Ebay
AOC - SLS

Would like to see pros discussing amongst these 3 monitors, planning to get either of these in the coming months.

Edit:
Forgot to add on, I'm using Gigabyte GTX 650 Ti 1GB
DVI-D i think.
Currently on old Samsung VGA monitor.

Read somewhere that unlucky ones need to change the LED PCB for Crossover DIY, from the seller?

AOC is cheaper panel, leading to IPS glow for blacks not good if blacks are frequently viewed.

Anymore advice is very much appreciated :)

i don't agree to this.

the glow for blacks is only obvious when you love to work in a room with near-zero light which actually is bad for eyes anyway.

If i'm using the monitor to watch shows in my room, with the lights off.
The glows will be visible right?

ditto, i think a lot of us off our lights at night and work in the dark or play/surf in the dark, so how bad is this?
