    Here's the same monitor for R300 less (plus you don't pay delivery).

    s23b370h at Takealot

    I see there is another Samsung 23" LED for R2100 (the s23b300b) so you may want to consider that as well. I think the only diff is the contrast ratio, but I'll leave it to you to research.
    s23b300b at Takealot

    I paid less than R2000 (don't recall exact price) for my 23" LG 3D monitor. If 3D is not your thing, there is a 23" LG monitor with IPS display for the same price. I don't see them at takealot or rebeltech atm, but if you shop around I'm sure you'll find them if you are interested.

    So R2650 is in my opinion a bit expensive.
    One day, I'll grow up and become responsible.
    Probably not today.

    don't need a ips panel, it's purely for gaming so ips offers not much.

    Was also going to mention the AOC brand.

    I don't know which model but it's larger then one OP listed one for R2k with pretty much the same specs (27inch 1920x1080res 60hz 2ms response time)
