Looking at the reviews, no one seems to have any massive complaints about it. BenQ tend to make very good products anyway. You shouldn't have any problems with them.

Wow! That's a bit pricey if you plan on buying 3. I'm quite confused, how do you plan on using the 3D-ready feature on this model? You can't play games on a dual monitor setup, as you'll have two nasty bezels staring you in the face. If anything, you should use all 3 in a proper tri-monitor gaming setup (making sure your card supports 3D output) and grab a TV/Monitor for your Xbox. Plus 120Hz is just unnecessary, you pay quite a bit extra for something that (in most situations) will show a difference in gaming.

Ok I understand. The 3 monitor setup in 3d would look AMAZING!! I honestly don't plan on playing a TON of PC games though. Would having 2 monitors connected to pc still allow me to use one as 3d? Ill also reconsider the 3rd monitor for xbox aswell.

Actually, if you're going for a multiple monitor setup, this would be look horrendous for multiple reasons. For one, it's a low quality panel ( TN ) in terms of colour and viewing angles are sub par.

If you ask me, this 144hz selling feature that does NOT justify the price of the monitor is simply a gimmick and waste of useful money. By the way, to even notice the higher than normal refresh rates, you have to have a video card that is capable of producing a consistent 120 FPS (+). Console gaming is pointless on that monitor since they're capped at a certain FPS that does NOT exceed 60 FPS rendering the selling feature of that monitor useless.

If your main priority is to not be playing games, that's another reason not to buy these. You'd be better off with a high(er) end IPS display. Take a look at the Dell Ultrasharps.
