U2711 vs U2713HM
Okay folks. I need to pick between one of the two. Assume that price and power consumption do not matter; I simply need to understand which is better for my usage scenarios. I do a lot of coding, read a lot of text, play lots of games, and watch a lot of movies/tv shows/anime on my computer. No photoshop or color work. I also value the HDMI port for plugging in my Xbox 360 to the same monitor.
* Is LED backlit (on the U2713HM) visually better for the above, and why? Does LED backlit mean deeper blacks and less backlight bleeding?
* Is 6-bit color (U2713HM) noticeably worse than 8-bit (U2711)?
* Could you please give me technical and user-experience reasons why one is visually better to use?
Thanks a lot!

P.S. - I have huge discount coupons for Dell and I like their warranty, I am not interested in other manufacturers. I am also okay with the anti-glare hard coating as I work in a bright room with lots of windows (used a U2412m in the same room which I loved).
