iMac (27-inch, Mid 2010) i5
Display Type: LCD
Resolution: 2560 x 1440
Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888)
Main Display: Yes
Mirror: Off
Online: Yes
Built-In: Yes
Connection Type: DisplayPort

XFX Radeon R9 280X 3GB Double Dissipation Video Card

I was doing some research and came across the following:
LG 34" Class UltraWide IPS Gaming Monitor 34UM57-P

BenQ RL2755HM 27 inch Console Gaming Monitor

So my question is, what are your recommendations? Are the above any good? I want something that is at least as good as my iMac in terms of display and size (bigger and better is OK as long as not above $400-$500 price range) and can connect to my videocard.
Thanks!
