maximum pc best gaming monitor image
fenderop
Dell has a special on a 22" monitor (E228WFP) and I am wondering if this monitor would work well with games. They also sell higher end gaming monitors which is what makes me re-think if this is a good purchase? All I do on this PC is play games... the work is done on a laptop. Thoughts?
Answer
"Highend gaming monitors are for the most part overrated. the best monitors for playing games on were the older CRT's, serioulsy. it is all about the refresh rates when it comes ot monitors. the newer ones only refresh to 60Hz, or 60 maximum fps. older crt's had refresh rates of 120hz and up. some companies show resonse times in ms like that has anyhting to do with performance. the eye can't detect past 60Gps and it doesn't notice response times faster than 5ms.
The reaosn we use lcd's today and not crt's is simple, certs are big and cluncky, plus we can get a 24in lcd for the same price of a 19crt easily.
So, here's how oyu find the monitor that's best for you. figure out what kind of graphics card oyu have. this is what will determine the resolution of the game you play at, more so than the monitor ever would. if you are playing highend games on an integrated graphcs card, emdia accelerator, gma, or anything like that, well a 17 in monitor is all you'd need. if oyu have a decent stand alone card, somehting form the lower 8000,9000 series form nvidia or the 3000 series and lower 4000 series form ati, then a 20-22 in screen at maximum resolution of 1680x1050 is the most you'd be able to use. if oyur graphics card is a higherend 8800, 9800, gtx series or upper 4000 series card form ati then 24in monitors and above can be used with great results.
You can still buy a big monitor if that's what you want, it's just that durring games on a lower end card, you will have to dial down the resolution so the game doesn't gitter out of controll.
So, moral of the story? buy whatever you want, for the most part any monitor will look great, and there is no need to fall for the hype of "gaming monitors"
Hope this helps,

How good of a gaming computer will I be able to build with a $450 budget?
Ethan
Hello. I am planning on building a gaming computer. I know How to build a gaming computer, but I'm not sure if my $450 budget is enough to build a "good" computer (just the computer not including price of monitor, mouse, case, ect.) By "good" I mean if the computer I will be able to build with this budget can run games such as CoD, battlefield 3, Arma 2, and other games. I would like to be able to run these games with max graphic settings, and other settings that will overall boost the game FPS, quality, and performance. I also want to be able to have a fast processor with at least 3 ghz, and atleast 8gb of RAM. I would like to have a great quiet fan that does the job. Please can you tell me if this is possible, or if I can buy a computer with these specifications. Can you please Recomend parts I will need to buy with the prices if this is possible? Or can you tell me the name of a computer I can buy and list it's price? Thank you.
