    Hi all,
    Recently I ordered a RL2455HM 24" Benq monitor from Costo.ca to use with an alienware computer. This supposedly has a response time of 1ms, and is supposed to be a good gaming monitor.
    Costco emailed me today to inform me that they accidentally shipped the GW2750HM 27" monitor instead, which is bigger, but has a 5ms response time (not sure how the other specs compare). They said I could keep the larger monitor if I wanted, or get a refund.

    Is 27" too big? And is it not as good a monitor as the 24 model? There wasn't really a huge price diff anyway, about $40. Costco says the 24 is now no longer available through them, but I know I can find it elsewhere.

    Opinions??
    Thanks!!
