What size screen do you use for gaming?

[chaparral]

Dell 24" U2410"

And sometimes use my 50" pioneer plasma for racing games and other gamepad games(I.E like tombraider)

 

[Tibbz2]

22" Asus 1920 x 1080

Awesome screen.

 

[LLBDTiberio]

Hazro 27", 2560X1440 goodness

 

[Chordian]

24" Widescreen on Acer H243H, 1920x1080.

This should have been a poll.

Was that back in the old days before wista/win7, when soanning mode was supported?

I use 3x24" Dell u2412M (1920x1200, though gaming at 6048x1200).
If eyefinitry supported uneuqal resultions, I'd seriously consider replacing the centre screen with a 30" 2560x1200, and putting the side monitors in portrait. I do wonder though if I'd lose some peripheral vision there - current monitors do fill my field of vision while Im gaming.

No, it was using SoftwareTripleHead. Until AMD or Nvidia decide to allow unequal resolutions with Eyefinity or Surround, this is really the only way to do it. Either that or somehow fool CCC or NCP into thinking you have 3 2560x1600 monitors, which seems unlikely, plus would require an awful lot of graphics performance...

22" LG flatron, It's half decent but I'm looking at upgrading to a 1920x1080 model soon

Catleap 2560x1440

 

[A2BDriver]

24" Dell ST2010 as my main monitor and a BenQ G2420HDBL in extended display, both in 1920x1080

I can't stand 16:9 screens , fine for gaming/movies but not good for work

What makes you say this? The whole 1080p thing bugs me to tell you the truth. They charge you the same and give you 120 less pixels just because 1080p sounds better to the masses.

1080p = 2,073,600 pixels
1200p = 2,304,000 pixels

More then 120 difference

I do know what you mean though. TBH I prefer 16:10 over 16:9 for everything (although I have 16:9). That extra hight can be useful

24", any bigger would be too big.

Do most of you 27"+ guys play FPS?

 

[ThomBassmonkey]

I'm using a 32" TV atm and play all kinds of things, mostly LoL, Minecraft, BF3 and hopefully GW2 when it comes out.

I think screen size is a balance between a big screen and how close you sit, I'm sure I'm sat way too close to mine, I have to physically move my head to look between the sides of the screen.

23" Samsung LED 3D Monitor.

LOVE IT

Does that question apply to us eyefinity users too?

I play almost exclusively, FPS and driving games. I don't play online multiplayer FPS though.

 

[jakspyder]

2 24" 1920x1200s. Love it, obviously i game on one and use the other for utilities, IRC TS3 etc. Ideally want a central 30" which im currently saving for (but kinda needs a GPU upgrade to go with it!) and use the 2 screens for utility either side. Thats the plan at least.

 

[neoglow]

22" at 1680x1050

 

[Retromatic]

24" (1920x1200)
50" 1080p
150" 1080p (if I get the projector out)

 

[mad_weegie]

Catleap 2560x1440

This +1

 

[Podmonkey]

19"... . 22" has was sent back over a month ago, still awaiting the credit so I can but a shiny new one as they cant fix it.
