but seriously, if you got the bread for a benq then yes no question

tn panels are all bound to have terrible colors compared to IPS/VA/PLS

If you mess around with color temperatures, contrast, gamma etc; then the colors on TN panels are fine enough.
What I don't like in particular with the BenQ gaming monitors are how the black equaliser feature messes with parts of a map which arn't particuarly dark sometimes.
Personally I think the Asus monitor is better bang for your buck unless you need the huge amount of ways you can rotate a BenQ monitor.

That's what turning it off is for.

My ASUS VG236HE (no longer available?) has been pretty much perfect for the last year. All I did was turn the brightness to 50% and the contrast to 75% and it got rid of the overly saturated colors. I use an AMD HD 7950 (previously an HD 6950 when I got the monitor) and AMD chipsets have been known for many years to have warmer image quality out of the box. NVIDIA chipsets tend to have less saturation out of the box and need a little saturation boost to be more comparable, so perhaps that is what causes people to say that ASUS monitors look disgusting.
All TN panels suck, but my VG236HE believe it or not is probably the best looking one I have owned color-wise. Can't wait until we are able to have 2560x1440 IPS monitors that can do at least 85-120Hz, but NVIDIA cards have a limitation for DL-DVI at least that limits you to 2560x1440 @ 82-84Hz.

k i guess im going with the asus, do i need to run a display port cable or dual link dvi for 144hz

All of the IPS panels' limitations have been overcome as far as I know.

Dual-link DVI cable is the only video cable included, so that's the main supported input. I do not know if the DP input supports 144Hz or not.

Except that it can't run over 60 Hz. Unless you take a gamble on overclocking korean Apple reject monitors.
