Reviews for it are really good. Only somewhat downside is typical TN contrast ratio hover around 800 to 900. But it's a non grainy display and reviews say the color accuracy is very surprising for TN. very low input lag and fast pixel response as well.

It's $360 at Dell. I chatted with them twice to price match had it sent up to a supervisor and continually was told they won't price-match because it's a "limited time offer" even though it's just a normal sale. I ended up calling and saying I wanted to order a monitor and price match Best Buy and the guy had no problem doing so. I had Dell points and my preferred account to put it on otherwise I would have just got it at Best Buy. So if you would want to get it from Dell directly I suggest calling them not chatting.
 
Thanks for posting! I wanted to chime in to all of you 60hz guys. Boys, trust me, make the investment and move over to a higher refresh rate.

It's not just the games that benefit but you're windows desktop experience as well. Mouse is a lot smoother and windows refresh @ 120fps vs 60hz. You would think it wouldn't be that big of a deal but for me, it was.

Also, another option to consider. If you want a 32" 144hz ... here is a really nice LG Freesync for $349 that is a fantastic deal as well. This monitor is actually $550 to $600 everywhere else. I am not sure why Microcenter is so much lower on this display but they are.

Agree on both fronts. I just switched over to 144hz and it's been a great experience. Just using Windows looks so much better. Just to compare I set BFV to 60hz yesterday and wow it looked bad going back.

I also picked up that LG monitor over BF for $299. It's pretty sweet. Loving the size. I think 32 is just right. 43 was too much for me.
 
How does this compare to the dell ips monitors? Might just drop by micro-center to see it in person, but if anyone has any experience please let me know.

Well, I owned this monitor and while it's certainly not an IPS display, I thought the picture bright and razor sharp. I would have kept it but 32" is a bit small for me. I am used to 43" to 55" for my display.
