LG 19" Worth It?

[joh06937]

i have an LG Flatron L196WTQ-BF 19" Monitor with 2ms response time and a 3000:1 contrast ratio (not sure if dynamic or not) hooked up to my hd 5770. i was wondering if it would be worth it to get another and use them for eyefinity for gaming? i really don't have any other monitors to compare this to so i don't know if there is any real difference in-game. should i just invest in something better and eventually get another one of those? any opinions are appreciated.

I have a 21.5" Flatron W2253TQ. Love it. It's extremely bright, fast, and sleek.

It looks like your monitor is a scaled-down version of mine. If you really need to utilize eyefinity technology and have extra money, go for it. However, you might need a pretty hardcore graphics card.

I would just pick up a bigger monitor (maybe a 23") and forget about eyefinity.

Yup, I find it really hard to play on stretched screens. Unless you're going to stack them on top of each other

I find dual monitors handy if you have one showing a full-screen game and one with an online guide at the same time or something like that.

get one with a decent resolution. definately not 1680x1050 for a 23" one though. gotta be 1900x1200, or 1080p (1920x1080)

Don't buy a small hdtv either. Those aren't meant to be viewed 3 feet away.
