not really sure about special features as far HDMI would be nice I have a nvida gtx 570 card I think it has a mini HIMI out on it

one other thing is im going to be getting a KVM switch and I have heard that you cant get hi resolution with the switch

I have an Iiyama ProLite E2409HDS 24" LCD monitor. Lovely monitor, realistic colours, good price (mine cost £145 in June 2011, that's ~$228 USD, I think the price is still the same today) and a great response time, I think it's something like 1 m/s so it's a great monitor for gaming. Connectivity wise you can use HDMI, DVI or VGA (I use DVI), the resolution is 1920x1080 and 24" is a great size to work with, more than enough space. I have mine VESA-mounted to the wall to gain desk-space back, but you don't have to VESA-mount it. Iiyama monitors in general get my recommendation.

Nope,
quote]If viewing at normal monitor viewing distances, you want to keep your PPI (pixels per inch) above 90. The human eye can start to detect individual pixels at PPI < 96 ..... ok to miss by a little, after that screen starts to look grainy. I'd avoid the choices highlighted in bold text

Resolution / Description / Screen Size / PPI

1920×1080 / 1080p / 13.1 / 168.2
1920×1080 / 1080p / 15.6 / 141.2
1920×1080 / 1080p / 16.4 / 134.3
1920×1080 / 1080p / 21.5 / 102.5
1920×1080 / 1080p / 23.0 / 95.8
1920×1080 / 1080p / 23.6 / 93.3
1920×1080 / 1080p / 24.0 / 91.8
1920×1080 / 1080p / 24.6 / 89.6
1920×1080 / 1080p / 27.0 / 81.6
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 15.4 / 146.8
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 17.0 / 132.9
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 22.0 / 102.9
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 23.0 / 98.4
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 24.0 / 94.0
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 25.5 / 88.5
1920×1200 / WUXGA / 27.0 / 83.8

Yes but a 24" monitor should have a resolution of 1920x1200, not 1920x1080 and a 27" monitor should have a resolution of 2560x1440.

Therefore there is no decrease in PPI.
