You place
way too much emphasis on negative feedback. Consumers can be very finicky. Unless you have an incredible monitor at the moment, which will not be the case since you're in the market for a new one, then both those monitors linked by
Notarget will be a
massive improvement over your old monitor. I have not noticed any major ghosting, not that I notice such things, and the blacks are fine especially compared to my old and dead 19" LCD monitor which was alot more expensive when I initially bought it.
Like n0cturnal has suggested, if you want a better monitor you need a
larger budget. The Dell 2312hm has overwhelming positive reviews and is an
excellent monitor for it's asking price.
If you want a better gaming monitor than you can opt for the BenQ XL2420T, which is about twice as much.

And even then it doesn't have perfect reviews.
