It's not the refresh rate on LCDs. That's constant at 60hz. You want a "response time" of < 15ms. Many of the smaller high-end LCD monitors are pushing under 6ms response. And he really needs to look at reviews to see if that monitor is susceptible to artifacting, macroblocking, ghosting and the like when gaming. And a pretty hefty vidcard to push that resolution, as noted by others above.
