Monitors

My current monitor: http://www.viewsonic.com/us/va2223wm-5.html
The monitor I want: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B2HH7G0/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00B2HH7G0&linkCode=as2&tag=pcgamsim-20

Is it worth it to upgrade? If so, anyone know anywhere in the chicagoland area that I can sell my current monitor to for a semi decent amount of money?

Craig is your best bet to sell a used monitor, shipping will kill you online. But really you should consider running dual monitors, once you go dual you won't go back, it is a really nice luxury.

I agree 100%. I sadly had to get rid of two monitors. Only have 3 24's now. Also had 2 22's with the 24's. Sad day when I had to downsize.

more pixels=less fps screen size has nothing to do with anything

I have a second monitor already that's pretty bad but works nicely for mumble/whatever i have displayed on it. I have no use for 3 monitors, and don't need to use the monitor I have that's actually worth something to just display mumble/etc.

You won't get close to 144 FPS on most new games with that 560. An IPS panel is great because it's colors look like colors and you can look at it from other angles other than straight on without it looking bad

Well I would sure hope the colors on my monitor look like colors.

I'm pretty sure logic only plays CF/CSGO/CSS

So you are saying a 52'' 1080p TV has more pixels than a 24'' 1080p monitor?

800x600 on a 22" will have the same amount of pixels as 800x600 on a 24"

No it starts stretching pixels. to make up for the extra screen. I refuse to game on anything bigger then a 30".

So you wouldn't play on a 32" 4k monitor?

So a retina 15" MBP has less pixels than a 30" 1080p monitor?
