is there such thing as a 1920x1080 32inch lcd tv? or even just a monitor that's 32inch big? im using a Gtx 560 ti will it be able to run at the resolution? would a triple monitor set-up be better? also..i was wondering..are dual monitors for gaming also possible? or does it really need 3 to tango? - two 23inch monitors also @1920x1080

Yes, there are 32" 1920x1080 HDTVs available. Personally, I've been looking at this LG HDTV. I would assume that the GTX 560ti would be able to run that resolution just as it would any other monitor.

A triple monitor set up might look better, but you're looking at a significant decrease in performance (triple monitors = triple resolution). Dual monitor set ups for gaming are generally a bad idea as the bezels between the monitors are directly in the center of the display image.

The size of the monitor won't make a performance difference as long as the resolution remains constant. It doesn't take any more computing power at 1920x1080 to drive a 120" monitor than a 20" monitor. It's the number of pixels that you have to generate that makes a difference.

There are many tv's that display at 1920x1080.

Pretty much any newer LCD tv can.

I have a Sony Ex700 42", that is about 3 years old, and it runs great at 1920x1080. That is the max resolution for it though.
 
1920 x 1080 is the same GPU load whether it's on a 15" laptop or a 60" TV. As long as you are sitting at least 4 feet away from it, it shouldn't be too grainy. At moremal PC viewing distances, I would not use anything bigger than 23.6" as you will be able to see individual pixels and the spaces between the,.

Thanks for all the replies guys, ive been to our local appliance store where they sell tv's and such and i asked the sales people if their 32inch tv's was on 1920x1080 they just kept referring to the 1080p part as its HD quality i think, in short they dont have a clue what they were selling me its very annoying. So thanks for the inputs guys this really helps narrow my search down. I think ill go for a 32'inch instead since i dont have tv in my room yet :)
