I'm curious to see what most people perfer for gaming. I hear different things, I know 1920x1080 is better for movies, but what about gaming? I'm getting a new build, I want some answers!

Sorry for not voting but I cannot vote because I truly believe that 120 pixels is irrelevant. I have 2 X 24" LCDs @ 1980X1200 and my TV is 1980X1080. I use both to game on and it matters little those extra pixels. The physical size of the display is much more important IMHO.

Bigger is always better in gaming and in terms of monitor size. 1920x1200 is bigger in resolution, +1

 

By the way, this is posted in wrong forums section
