I wouldn't call it 'huge', but there is a benefit. However I think they'd still benefit from higher clocks, than hyperthreading, at that budget level.
I don't... think you understand how 120hz monitors work.
If you aren't getting over 60fps (which you cannot on Ultra in raids at 1080), then the 120hz aspect is utterly lost. It's like having a fifth wheel in the trunk of your car and thinking it makes you go faster, because more wheels means more speed.
GRANTED, if you are doing OTHER things, like FPS games where you can get higher frames with a better GPU, then 120hz is great. But for WoW raiding, it's not useful.
I (and most people) base their Raid gaming performance as the benchmark, not sitting alone in an empty zone killing rabbits and going "DUDE I totally am getting 200fps on this setup its awesome"
higher frames in raids is more important than higher frames.... somewhere else. Take your pick. 80-100fps in questing, and 30fps in raids... or 60fps in questing and 60fps in raids.
