Not much difference from 22" to 24" so save your money and get a bigger size in the future (30" :P).

i got a 32" full HD tv anyway :P

(i bought it JUST to play GTA4 on!)

Budget?

i hate wasting money, but i don't really have a problem with cost..

I've got a 7900GTO running a lot of stuff quite happily at 1920x1200. It just depends how high you want settings. ;) Most games can be played with completely acceptable settings. ;)


you seen the tests for the 8800GT?

it's rather good!
