24" LCD

[Dorkenstein]

Is it worth getting a 24 inch LCD for gaming if I am not planning on running super tight resolutions? Thanks.

If your not going to run it at such high resolutions then it'll either strech it or you'll get a black box around the image. Maby a 20.1in might be better?

I will probably go for a 19" I guess, thanks!

I would try and stay away from 19in monitors. Me (personally) would go for a 20.1in WS such as the Viewsonic VX2025 ($10 more then 19in). The future of gaming and movie watching is WS so anyone gettting a new monitor should get a WS one.

Okay, thanks for the tip. I am looking at a CHI MEI 20.1 right now.

A lot of people around here like this one:

As well as the Dell 2005/7fpw, the NEC, and the 21in Samsung.

I have found after extensive use of monitors from 15 " through 30 " the sweet spot for personal home use is 20 " WideScreen.

Unless you are into proffessional Graphics or other such stuff this is the best size for daily use.
