cuz a 20inch would cost me a whole extra week... plus 20-22 inchs will cuz my games to run to slow... its not like im spending 1200$ on hardware to be able to max games on a max res... so 19inch or 17inch widescreen, or if i could find cheap 19inch widescreen is most i can do

Why will your monitor make them run slow?
Friends gonna get this one if I remember it correctly: LG TFT W2252TQ
2ms, 22 inch, 5000:1 contrast...Worth the 269 euro's IMO

because as your monitor gets bigger, so does your res, and when your res gets bigger, it takes more power... so it will cause games to run slower, trying to get a bigger, better res...

Don't build computers when you don't have sufficient knowlegde about the hardware, and the OS you're gonna run on them.

Running something at same res in different size monitors doesn't slower down gaming *g*
Screen res. =/= Screen size.

I share my opinion with 80% of the people who have ever used Vista for anything else then writing Documents.
so google it.
And i won't trust you on that, since you're wrong. And to damn stubbern to read Ilove2quack's comment apparently.

This thread has been about hamburgers the entire time.
Google isnt the problem? of it isn't, google is what we call a 'search engine' which searched for websites related to your input. Learn to use it.
Don't come crying at my doorstep when Vista totally fucks you over. Cause i'm keeping the door closed.
