No worries mate! I think the Asus is a PLS panel (slightly cheaper Samsung IPS alternative tech) and the Dell's are IPS. There actually isn't a huge difference in colour accuracy between the two technologies it seems. PLS screens like the Asus have a lower latency and input lag which is potentially why it might be considered a more suitable "gaming" monitor.
Both screens also have a light Anti glare coating which is a good thing as Heavy AG can make things a bit grainny. Also these two aren't full gloss screens (which are annoying for me) so they are very similar in that respect.
Oh a minor thing I just noticed as well is that the Asus doesn't have any USB ports. Not really a huge issue, but a few extra ports doesn't hurt. I think both are pretty similar for your needs, but I thought the Dell edged out the Asus. Might be as simple as finding the better deal for the moolah as well?
