Howdy fellas
I'm about to upgrade my monitor to replace a Samsung 171p TFT. I've got a couple in mind:
20" Models
22" Models
I'm really stuck on whether to go for a 22" model or not. They look massive to me. I can't help thinking that my neck muscles are going to get one hell of a work out every time I siwtch on the PC. How do people find them? The money difference doesn't bother me but I don't want to regret my choice either way.
Secondly, I know the monitors listed are popular and get good reviews so I won't ask "which is the best monitor" since there are already dozens of that type of thread. But given my requirements (games, web browsing & general application work) what factors other than brightness, contrast ratio and response time should I be considering (or even other panels) ?
Any replies appreciated.
Edit: After thought; will my gfx card (see sig) be able to cope comfortably with 20/22?
