Good monitor for gaming?

[Druid]

Newegg.com - Acer H213H bmid Black 21.5" 5ms HDMI Widescreen 16:9 Full HD 1080P LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 ACM 20000:1 Built in Speakers - LCD Monitors

Not for me, but is it?

It's good, but idk why it's so cheap..

Ya, that's definitely a good monitor..

Runs at freaking 1080P, 1920x1080, so it looks awesome (higher Resolutions look better but are more demanding of the GPU.. but 1920x1080 won't require too much of a GPU [an HD 4850 would suffice])

I would buy that for myself if I didn't already have a monitor. That seems like a great deal.

 

[1337_JohnN]

I wonder why it's cheaper than a Samsung monitor@ 1680x1050 res..

Would a 9800GT do the trick?

 

[carnageX]

Yes..

 

[Druid]

Well I was just asking because the 9800GT is like 6 ranks below the 4850 in the gfx card ranking thread.

 

[veg1992]

It would be, but not if you want to play the new games maxed out at 1920x1050

Sli would do it. I played with the BlackBird 002 from hP, and it had 2 9800GT's. CoD4 was sick, but sometimes hicuupped. Btw, 1900x1200 res.
