Can someone tell me what a good gaming monitor would be?

best gaming monitor for pc image

Q. Does anyone know what a good gaming monitor would be? Preferably one that runs over 60hz, has over a 20 inch screen, and has a good contrast ratio? Thanks.

Answer
Check out that link, There aren't any "gaming monitors", the most you can do is look for the best quality monitor and a size and resolution your PC can handle. I assume you'll be using this for a PC...even then, you can just hook up a PC to your HDTV if it's supported. I'd shoot for that HP 2509m or LG W2486L.

Good luck.

Gaming PC build that could run any game for the next few years?

ChucNorris

I'm looking into building a new gaming PC. I would like to be able to play games like Battlefield 3, Guild Wars 2, and other games coming out in the next few years. I want this computer to last me at least 4 years without needing any expensive upgrades. My budget is about 800 but I'd be willing to go up to 1000. I want to max these games out and run them at a full steady 60 frames per second.
Thanks.
