im thinking of going for the samsung 206bw 1680x1050 res,or its smaller brother 19"widescreen with 1440x900 res,whitch one would suit me best,as my gfx card is a 8800gts 320mb,i was thinking the 19" but id prefer the 20" with higher res but am thinking when games like graw 2 and bioshock come out, my card might struggle at the 1680x1050 res what do you think

I'm gonna bump this because I have the exact same question. I haven't researched much but the samsung's look to be pretty good monitors. I've come down to the 206BW (20" ) and the 906BW (19" ).

They seem to be basically the same monitor specs with the desired low response time I'm looking for. The 206 however has a native res of 1680x1050. Currently I play CoD4 and Oblivion (I built a new pc so I'm revisiting games too). I have an e6750 and the new g92 GTS so I'm sure I can handle the new resolution comfortably (currently 1280x1024).

I've never bought a widescreen before so if anyone can put forth some tie-breaker info it would be very appreciated. So far it looks like the 20" is the obvious choice; but maybe I'm missing something.

And here's the monitors:
