Hi,

I was thinking to buy a setup of 3 monitors for gaming, those could be 3 Asus VS247H-P (24 inch) or 3 ASUS VS228H-P (22 inch), the price difference is about 33 USD per monitor so 100 USD in total.

The question is, are 3 22 inch monitors cool enough for gaming or 3 24 inch will be much more better?

Thanks
 
For me I can't see gaming on anything other than my 3 Asus 27" monitors but that's me. In truth I got these monitors when I had the money to get what I really wanted and not what I really needed.

That said I would go for the 24" I think 22" might be just a tad small.

Ive got a single 27 at home, and work on three 24s. I really like how much bigger the 27 is, but the real key is to find a small bezel. because if you can find 27s with a small bezel, but 24s for cheaper with big bezels, i would honestly base the purchase off the bezel.

Most of the time I am going to be sit on the desk, thats why I am not sure if I am going to have to move a lot the head to play FPS games there i.e or racing games

If the reason you have to sit on your desk is because you have no chair, maybe you should buy a chair instead of monitors ;)
 

I would agree I have got used to my Asus monitors but did not really know enough going into it at the time plus I got them almost 3 years ago so small bezel size was not much of a option at that time given that Eyefinity/Surround setup's were not that popular at the time. But over the few years I have had them I really do not notice it anymore. Of course you really need a big desk to handle 3 27" monitors in the first place. When I setup mine up a friend of mine and I had to build a desk just to fit all three the way I wanted. Now if I could find a monitor stand that can handle 3 27" monitors they all seem to top out at 24" at least in something I can afford.
