I currently have a 17 inch CRT monitor running with ATI HD6870 GPU.

Going to get a new Monitor since this one is small.

Primary purpose of new monitor is Gaming.

I want to keep in mind that there is quite a performance difference when one jumps from 1600x1050 to 1900x1200 in almost every benchmark i have seen atleast 10 Frames dropping when moving to 1900x1200

I have narrowed down to these options in both 20 and 21.5 inch.

21.5 Inch Displays:

1. LG 21.5 inch LED - E2251VR Monitor

2. Dell-21-5-inch-led-s2240l-monitor

3. samsung-21-5-inch-led-s22b370h-monitor

20 Inch Displays:

4. dell-20-inch-led-in2030m-monitor

5. samsung-20-inch-led-s20b300b-monitor

6. lg-20-inch-led-e2042tc-monitor

Among these based on given reviews i have further drilled down to these 2 options.

-Samsung 21.5 inch LED - S22B370H Monitor

(Dell-21-5-inch-led-s2240l-monitor however has IPL panel type but its having a response time of 7ms, samsung however has 2ms)

-Dell 20 inch LED - IN2030M Monitor

(edited)
I want to know 3 things:
-If these 2 are really the best options i have got among these 6
-Should i go for 20 inch or 21.5 inch.
-If i go for 21.5 inch should i go for dell or samsung, as i mentioned dell s2240l has response time of 7ms will it actually be apparant when playing fps games ? or is it just fine.
