gaming on monitor vs tv image
Nik
Im wondering if FPS will change depending on the physical size of the screen
i.e using a 42" tv vs a 20" monitor assuming same resolution
Answer
The physical screen size won't matter.
The FPS will go down if you increase the resolution, from 1024x768 to 1280x1024, for example.

I already know i want a 1080p/i capable monitor, 2m or 5m, but what else should i look for. Such as contrast ratio and refresh timing.
Answer
The higher the refresh rate and contrast ratio the better for movie and TV watching. You really have to go and look at a monitor before buying. Don't buy it completely on specs. Manufacturers play around with numbers.
1080i is not 1080p ... to get true 1080p you need a resolution of at least 1920 X 1080. Some monitors are capable of 1920 X 1200 which is better for computing and can give you 1080p as well of course.
The number one thing to look for is amount of colour. I bought an Acer and the colour seemed washed out. I ended up buying a Samsung to watch movies and TV on in the livingroom and using the Acer for my computer. I can still watch blueray movies on the computer, but the higher contrast ratio and more colour on the Samsung makes movies and TV look better. But the Samsung is really dark for evil games which are at night or dark. So the Acer is fine for computer games. You don't really need rich colours for that. It has a faster response time of 2ms vs 5ms which is great for games.
The connections on the back of the monitor are really important too. You want at least two HDMI connections, a DVI and a component connection.
Remember, your video card has to support HDCP to watch blueray movies. I use a DVI to HDMI converter on the back of my video card and an HDMI cable to connect to the 24" Acer monitor's HDMI input. It has no DVI in, only VGA for computer.
So the more variety of connections on the back of the monitor, contrast ratio and richness of colour are very important. The sharpness of picture and bleeding of light around the edges of the screen is the reason you have to view before you buy. Also cheap monitors bleed colour between objects.
The stand is also an issue. If the monitor is on a table that moves, you can't have a wobbily stand.
