oK, thanks for the above feedback. This is semi related to the op, but I'm having trouble wondering why I play so much better on my laptop than my desktop. I suspect I prefer the smaller screen size. Is that accurate do you think? Or is it something else?

same answer as before. You must have some messed-up ergo on your desktop. DO NOT bury your face in the monitor, please.

Ask your girlfriend to play on both, if she plays the same on both then it's your imagination, if she is better on one than the other she might be able to tell you why.

Shroud explained why bigger monitors are bad for certain type of fps games. He suggested that 24 inch monitors are ideal. Anything bigger than that, you're focusing on too many pixels. Well, he really should have said even smaller screen is better. Less pixels you're focusing, the better your aim will be

Here is shroud 4 years ago

this is just bullshit. unless you have a 300" and it extends completely out of your field of vision, it's absolutely fine to have a larger monitor.

If you want to take FPS advice, take it from someone that plays Quake / Unreal / Tribes or AT MOST Counterstrike, not from bullshit like PUBG.

Note that PUBG is a bad game (it may be, i dont know), but it requires more intelligence than aim. The same for things like Battlefield, COD, etc.

That's not aim. THIS is aim:
