New CPU or bigger monitor?. Right now I have GTX 260 Athlon X2 6000+ 3.1ghz 2gb ram 19in monitor I'm wondering whether I should go with a phenom 2 or a 23-24in widescreen monitor. All my games run pretty well. But will upgrading my monitor and rez...

Bigger monitor, which card?. So I run a 19" widescreen (1440x900) monitor now, but am looking to get a cheap (but reliable) 24" in the next few months. It will primarily be for streaming videos (netflix FTW!), but if I can game on it, that'd be great. I...

why bigger is better. my buddy has a 55" widescreen lcd. does sticking my nose up to my 21" monitor amount to the same thing? it sounds funny but i can only think of a couple reasons....please validate my desire to spend a lot of money on a big tv. <P...

1 to Samsung monitors. I have 2 and love them. I wouldn't go with a bigger monitor at the same pixel count, but that's me. I think the 24" monitors are plenty big and would be great. You honestly have 2 4870x2s, huh? You spend $1100 + on GPUs alone...
