Benq gw2450hm is one of the best monitors in the market according to the reviews!!
excellent blacks and contrast,good colours too
http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/benq_gw2450hm.htmwell within your budget,better response time than IPS because of the VA panel...
though it may not be great for photoshopping

I suggest looking up the options locally available and posting them here for feedback. Dealers might not stock all brands/models.
I've been using Dell monitors for years now and think they do well for most purposes. Currently own a 22" and 24" from Dell. They also offer the UltraSharp line of monitors.
ASUS makes great gaming monitors, so consider this when you go monitor hunting.
BenQ monitors offer a great deal more than the competition. It's just their availability, long term reliability and A.S.S I would be worried about.
As suggested above, rule out IPS panels for now because gaming is top priority and response time matters. TN/VA panels are what you are after.

16:10 vs 16:9 doesn't really matter for gaming. The display resolution will differ.
The 16:9 format is best suited for movies/entertainment, while the 16:10 supports a broader range of applications. Serious gamers would prefer a 16:10 panel. Also good for working with documents and stuff.
The Dell U2412M appears to have generally positive reviews which is good. Look through the review and user comments here. Response time of 8ms is not too bad considering most other panels average at around 5ms. In most cases (games), the difference wouldn't be noticeable.
Hope this helps.

All those newegg reviews say that text is blurry and whites look dirty (due to the anti-glare coating). Sad. Thought this monitor was meant to be great!
