I am buying a new pc mainly for gaming and just wondering if I really need a widescren lcd monitor?
Does a widescreen monitor make any difference for games or should i save myself around €500 by keeping my current 19inch lcd which seems to be in fine condition? I plan to have a 768MB nVidia GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card on Windows Vista if that makes any difference to the subject.

Any answers or suggestions would be a great help!
 
Well, not really... it just gives a larger viewing area, i would prefer a widescreen anyday.

Why did you make two threads on this?
 
I don't have a widescreen and I can only go by what I've heard. It's supposedly Jesus resurrected.. in monitor form. Well, not really, but everone i know who's had one, loves it, would never go back. If you didn't already have a working LCD, it would be an instant recommendation. That you do, changes my opinion, I wouldn't waste the money on a new one. That's just the opinion of a cheap gamer though.
