For the life of me i cannot fully describe what im about to say. Compared to my 40" tv my monitor picture just does not look how the video game is supposed to look. Its a lot different. Not as crisp... i cant describe it...

I have the acer p215h. 21.5" lcd 1080p monitor i believe. I want to save up for another monitor 23-24" 1080p with HDMI input.

Anyone recommend a monitor that makes the game look how its supposed to?

Well the crispness has always been a issue on tv's vs monitors. I was selling a system I bought off my friend and had hooked it up to my Samsung 46" and it just lacked as you stated the crispness or the sharpness. Color also seem a bit dull and kinda so so. But some of that is due to the fact that it's a 46" at 1920x1080 and the lines are alot longer and being stretched so it loses some of that crisp looking feel. Sure it was a nice hugh 46" screen but I would rather stick with my little 23" monitor. :)

TV monitors never look as good as a computer monitor.

Dont get me wrong i understand that. And the monitor is really good. Its just something really funky about it

Heres a pic of it on ultra 1080p. Idk if you can really tell by the picture what im talking about though. You can tell nothing really pops out. its rather odd
