gaming at 1920x1080 what do I need

Yeah, I have a 5850, and I would get that. I have a 1400x900 monitor, but am either upgrading to a 1080 or 1200 next month.... To me the extra money for the 5870 doesnt makes sense to get. Plus if you get an XFX card, its double lifetime warranty, so you can overclock it and not worry....

Low end DELL IPS vs high end TN LCD? Gaming monitor, cant decide!!

Thanks for the link! That was a very detailed and honest review. I still can't decide though :-p. I dont even really know if my eyes are sensitive to lag of the monitor, as I would mainly use this monitor for very fast paced FPS online gaming. Maybe I should just spend the same amount of...

Are you serious? A crt is like the dinosaur of monitors. They take a little bit to warm up, and take up a lot of room.

Low end DELL IPS vs high end TN LCD? Gaming monitor, cant decide!!

also whats everyones input on 1920x1080 vs 1200? i mean it seems so much more expensive for an xtra 1,200 extra vertical pixel lines, but im sure it would be more future proof, although 1080 seems to be the standard and im guessing a lot of games, especially coming out now and in the next few...

Low end DELL IPS vs high end TN LCD? Gaming monitor, cant decide!!

yes, i think this is what it comes down too. im upgrading from an Envision 1440x900 19" lcd and its about 3 years old. so anything thats 23-24 inch, i should be happy with and if it is IPS, i will probably love it.

Low end DELL IPS vs high end TN LCD? Gaming monitor, cant decide!!

I'm looking at the U2410, its 1920 x1200, and ViviTheMage, i wanna go at least 1080, although i see a huge price difference. i want to see someone gaming on it before i buy it, but that doesnt really work when you watch youtube videos... Im also scared of once I got IPS, ill never go back :D
