Hi im buying a new LCD monitor for my 8800 GTS KO Edition card, and i was wondering what size should the monitor be, and what is the best monitor out today? (mainly for gaming)

so far ive been looking at 22" monitors, and i am thinking of buying either the SAMSUNG T220 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6824001273) and SAMSUNG 2253BW (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6824001268), but i really dont understand whats so different about them???

Please respond quickly, and thank you for your help in advance :sol:! oh and btw my budget is 250-350 ish.

I don't see a whole lot of difference between them either, to be perfectly honest. One is claiming outlandishly high dynamic contrast, but I doubt you'd see much difference between them.

SAMSUNG T220:
1. 20,000 :1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio (1,000:1 Static Contrast Ratio)
2. Tilt only.


SAMSUNG 2253BW:
1. 8,000:1 Dynamic Contrast Ratio (1,000:1 Static Contrast Ratio)
2. Swivel & Tilt.
