Would there be a big difference for gaming between a lcd monitor with 0.297mm dot pitch and crt monitor with 0.25mm dot pitch?

I did a lot of research and I had a 1000 buck sony ps monitor that died. I got the Mitsubishi DP 930 and it is very good. Text is sharper than my sony was. The only other monitors I was considering were the viewsonic p95+ and NEC FE991, they have a mitsubishi diamondtron tube and a .25-.27 variable pitch dp. The 930 is .24 and has a totally flat tube with no flat piece of glass over a slightly curved tube like the viewsonic 95+ and NEC 991. 930 also has a superior gun the u-nx. There are 2 types of Diamondtron tubes, Diamondtron and Diamondtron NF (Natural Flat) aperture grille. The 930 has the latter tube. Diamondtron comes in the Viewsonic and the NEC FE991. Naviset software is great that you dl from nec site. It allows you to set every setting by mouse using on screen test patterns. I had mine set up in bout 5 minutes perfectly. 930 is about a 300-340 buck price range. I got mine from Dell and it was 268.00. If the special is off wait a week or 2 and they will offer it again (10% off monitors). The shipping is free. Sharky extreme uses it in their high end gaming machine: http://www.sharkyextreme.com/guides/MHGSBG/article.php/3336081
