I'm currently using a 21.5" monitor, at 1920x1080 resolution. I feel that the items on the screen are too small (such as buttons, etc.), so I want to get a bigger monitor. I was originally going to get a 24", but now I'm thinking of going to 27", and still keeping the 1920x1080 resolution.
However, I heard that the spaces between pixels become noticeable. How annoying exactly is this? Right now for instance, the pixels are so packed on my 21.5" monitor that there are no "spaces". However, I also have a 50" HDTV and although I can notice the spaces for 1080p and 720p television programming, I feel that it isn't THAT bad. But perhaps it's much worse when the screen is two feet in front of my face and I have to read text on it? My monitor is currently 24" from my eyes, and with the new monitor, I plan on it being 24–26" from my eyes.
Will the spaces between pixels be most problematic for graphics such as video games and movies, or reading text? Ideally, I want a monitor that can read text crisp and clear (otherwise I'll probably get a headache), but if graphics doesn't look as great because it's blown up on a 27" monitor, then that isn't as big of a problem for me.
Also, will a 27" monitor be so large when it's 24" from my eyes that it will strain my neck because I have to move it too much to see the whole thing?
