Ok, basically here is my question.. I currently have a 19" Dell that is around 6 years old. It still performs well running right now and 1152x864 at 85hrz now I know thats basically on the video card, but just wanted to let you know what im running.
I have been looking at a 21 or 22" monitor, viewsonic or something. With my radeon 9800 I feel I could run at higher res's around 1600 or so, but what im wondering is will I have to be running my games at a higher res just to make up for the bigger size.. (which I know i would) since I dont want to play HL2 at 1024x768 on a big monitor, its ok on my 19" but on something that big I probably would want to make sure its going to look good but also make sure that my system can handle a bigger res just to make up for the bigger size. I certainly dont want to comprimise graphics just for a bigger size. However, the monitor is old and I would like to get something bigger since I really cant hook it up to my 35" tv. Then again alot of people would say that a 19" monitor would be enough, but if possible id want bigger..what do you think?
