Does screen size effect FPS gaming ??

Seemed like a reasonable question to me. I have gone from a crt 17" 1280x1024 to a 22.2" (1680x1050), and then to a 26" (1920x1200). I haven't noticed that much more work for my eyes to do, but I can see where the problem might arise for one over another re : refresh rate, screen size, particularly from small to quite large over a short period of time. Rather than graduate to a 30" screen next time, I'll probably head for a 24" - 27" 120hz, or something similar.

Higher resolution which is usually on bigger screens means you can see more of the game which gives you an advantage. But not much else. A high res on a small screen might make your crosshair smaller but assuming your eeysight is good it shouldn't actually matter.

I found the same going from a 21" to a 27" But I think it's more of a case of my eyes now need to look around the screen more then just been fixed looking at a smaller screen.

yup i get the same upgraded from a 17inch crt at 1600x1200 res to a 24inch screen at 1920x1080 and its harder to notice stuff thats not in the centre of the screen especially when playing RTS online and a lot going on
