Greetings,
I have always played PC games as a hobby, going from the 4:3 Diablo 2 and AoE days, to now, with all this rather topping 16:9 'Full HD', '1080p' madness.
I am currently using a 1680x1050 monitor. It's an 'Acer X223w', however, a variant, with only VGA compatibility. The monitor has an 8ms response time. It's an LCD monitor, TN panel.
This year I upgraded my PC. Intel i5 4650k, GTX 760, 8GB ram.
Still using that blasted monitor though!
Should I upgrade to something like a 1920x1080 LED IPS panel? Will it even make much of a difference when gaming?
My Acer X223w is from the DDR2 days and is 5 years old.
