The links work for me, I presume you know 1 is an LCD and one is an LED. If you are willing to pay the extra £70 the second link (w2486l) is technically a better screen although other than a better contrast ratio they are pretty similar. The more expensive one is a lot more energy efficient aswell although you are going to have to have it turned on for a long time to recoup your £70.

indeed the first link is lcd however the led which is teh sercond link is inferior to the first link becasue it has not that much Brightness (cd/m2) and the viewing angle is less than the lcd monitor
although im open for any moniotor suggestion beside those two monitor

They're both LCDs; They just have different backlights.

I didn't really look at the details, but assuming they're both TN panels, just get the cheaper one. £70 seems too much for just the LED backlight.

From the links you gave i am assuming you are in the UK, if so take a look at scan they have some nice models including this one i am looking at buying for a new pc i am building in a couple of weeks which has been recomended by a friend as a decent screen.

seems after searching around people say 120khz has smoother play on fps but will it the color and contrast be ok

120Hz is supposedly a noticeable improvement (I haven't tried it personally), but remember you'll need a GPU that can drive the games at more that 60FPS in order to see any benefit.
