Well, DELL seems to have a good resolution. If you really want multi-featured "monitors" i'd suggest you purchase TV/Monitors instead of a monitor only.

VRAM directly affects the capability of a GPU to perform it's said speed at higher resolutions. The greater the VRAM, the more "lag free" it will be when producing outputs on bigger screens. Also a larger VRAM will enable you to MULTI-MONITOR without the fear of lagging.

For reference, you can play games at around 1920x1080 and it would still be smooth as mirror. Try experimenting on settings to get the most out of your card. Sometimes it all depends on your settings as well. Proper hardware settings is a key role.
