Hi, i'm not sure which of these monitors I should get:

The first one is a 3000:1 contrast ratio and 400 cd/m2 brightness, while the second is a 20000:1 contrast ratio and 300 cd/m2 brightness.
On my current monitor which has a 1000:1 contrast and 450 cd/m2 brightness, I can say that I prefer the colour intensity over the banding on dark images, so based on this I would prefer as high a brightness level as possible. But the newer screen has a much higher contrast ratio too, so I'm not sure which one would have a better image quality.
