Looking to spend around $170 I would say is my max. Just looking for an upgrade from my 6 year old Viewsonic 17". Just bought a hd 5870 card and want a good monitor to enjoy it on.
I saw this screen

Dont really know much about pc monitors other than the response time factor. Other than that is a 1680 X 1050 resolution great for gaming?
*edit*
for a little more I found this one
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824236059
higher contrast ratio for just a little more
and its recommended resolution is 1920 x 1080
what is the big differences between these 2?
another thought, if the native resolution is 1920 x 1080, will I have to run that for the desktop and deal with tiny icons or could I use something a little lower then use 1920 x1080 in games?
