Hi guys,

Trying to find out which monitor(s) is(are) considered the best for gaming in 1600x1200 resolution.

Many thx for advising

I'm guessing that a 20.1-inch or true 21-inch monitor should support the native 1600x1200 resolution. Just make sure that when you are checking out the monitors online, or in store, that the specs state that the NATIVE resolution is 1600x1200, otherwise at that resolution, you will lose a little bit of image quality. Not much, but enough for an anal person to notice.

Honestly, the 19" monitors cost a lot less and look just as good at 1280x960. But if money is no object, go for the 20" or 21".

If you are looking for that kind of resolution I would go with a CRT I can run my at 1600x1200@80Hz except for the slow video card not being able to pull off max settings at those resolutions. Or you could just be another tool and get a LCD, that won't scale well for non-native resolutions and will be out of date when HDMI become the new video connection.

An amazing monitor for gamming at 1600X1200 is the 22" true flat from NEC.
