    gaming on an lcd

    right, ive heard about that 2001fp. however, i am not sure if i need 21" or so of monitor. its also expensive in the low $700s. i was hoping that gaming performance would increase the smaller the monitor. for that reason as well as price, i think i was looking at maybe 17" or 18" monitors.
