I was wondering which size monitor should I get to match with my rig?



I'm looking either to get a 22 inch Samsung 2243BWT or should I get a 24 inch monitor. I'm looking at a Samsung but I'm not sure which one to get. I don't want to overpower my rig either. Here are my specs.

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600, Asus P5B-E mobo, Corsair DDR2 1066 RAM, GeForce GTX 275 Video Card. I know that if I get a 24 inch monitor with a res of 1920x1200 I can reduce my resolution but I also know LCD's don't look good when they go out of their native resolutions. Right now I have a LG L204WT LCD and I use a res of 1680x1050. The Samsung 2243BWT uses that same resolution. Should I get that one or a 24?



I play mostly FPS games but I don't play that much. I think I just answered my own question. I don't play that much so I should probably get the 24...huh. I'd like to get a Samsung but I don't want to spend over $300 or so for it. Can anyone tell me the best 24 inch Samsung monitor to get or is there a good 24 inch LCD that anyone prefers?

Thanks in advance!

Check out the stickied LCD thread. For your budget, you probably will be looking for a TN panel type, and it should be pretty easy to find a good-quality 22 or 24 inch monitor (either 1080p or 1920x1200) that has the options you need.
