Hi all, been lurking here for a awhile but just joined to ask this question. I would like to buy this 26 inch HD TV for gaming. http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4529476 as it is has a DVI output.
Enjoy the drama of widescreen high definition (HD) with one simple purchase. 26" screen fits almost anywhere; built-in ATSC tuner delivers HD without the need for a separate set-top box. All priced attractively. Wall-mountable to save space.

Question being would this big of a TV work for gaming or would the resolution be distorted? I have read many times that 19 inch is the best for gaming is this true? How about 30-50 inches?
I never got to try anything over 19 inches, so basically I would like to know if it will all be good, and just be oversized but yet fill the entire screen? That would be awesome, and much more immersive as opposed to using these tiny monitors still. I think games are 4:3 or something like that, so would be bars on a 16:9 aspect ratio in games? I hope not. Thanks.
