The DPI is a lot higher on the 2560x1440 one. Though the best monitor for DPI would be a IBM T220/T221, that stuff is 3840x2400. That monitors height is the same as that IPS monitor's width.

If you have a screen with that high resolution I think you want more contrast ratio and refresh and less latency. Because at the point its at now, its just a blown up, mediocre specced, screen. Not to mention you would also need the GPU to handle that high resolution if you were setting things to max settings. The one I posted is the perfect balance of resolution, and good specs.

As far as I can see, this would be a far better choice.

I agree it's not the BEST for high-end gaming, but you have to keep in mind that it's the same panel as the Apple Cinema Display and that stuff goes for $999. The contrast ratio is great, I thought.

5000:1 is nothing compared to 10,000,000:1

What difference does contrast ratio make? Honestly I didn't think it mattered that much. My 3 monitors have 1000:1.
Fact of the matter is that monitor is still 1920x1080 and at 27" that's really stuffty looking. The higher resolution of the Crossover would definitely make up for the 6MS response time and the contrast ratio.

Colors look better. A lot better. Things are sharper and more defined.
If you think 5000:1 looks good then your mind would bleed from 10,000,000:1
