I use a 23" LCD monitor, but I use a lower resolution ingame since I don't want to play SC2 on max resolution.

You don't need to worry about color calibration like that unless you are working in print or something. This is for professional use, you could get a worthy monitor of that size for a fraction of the price.
I'm a graphic designer, PM me and I'll gladly help you out!

the bigger the monitor, the longer it takes for you to move your mouse cursor across the screen, and the more area there is to keep track of with your eyes.

if you sit far away, then it would be fine.

but i find myself struggling to keep up sometimes on my 24in monitors with sc2.

TBH, just get a 3d gaming monitor and play sc2 in 3d



Have you ever heard of mouse sensitivity?

I'll buy a 27'' monitor when the first SC2 tournament features something bigger than 21''...probably most will still use 19''

That's what she said :o

I find that my 21" monitor is almost too big. I've moved it to the back of my desk but it's still too big.

I agree w/ this. I've hooked my computer up to my 22" Monitor, which I am using now, and it is almost too big for desk use.

I've also tried it on my 27" and 37" monitors that i use for multi tabling poker, but they are simply too large to use on my desk without my eyes straining immensely

why the hell are you basing ur choice of monitor of sc2?

that monitor is the sex but w/ sc2 it will be just like any other monitor

1280x720, 1366x768, 1600x900, 1920x1080, 2560x1440 WILL ALL SHOW THE SAME AMOUNT OF STUFF on your screen. SC2 locks its FOV (field of view)

What you do get is more clarity (if your on max graphics).


false.

here you go

I use this monitor with great success... It has a "thru mode" where you can turn off all the post-processing that normally slows down input response on LCD's. The edges get a little blurry but the response is quite good. I use it with my PS3 for fighting games & am very picky about input lag on FPS like Quake 3. I can't notice any lag in SC2 but I'm not as good at detecting as some of you may be. When I did the high speed camera vs CRT test (which some on SRK dispute the accuracy of) I found a 0 to <1 frame delay, which is really good for an LCD that's under $300.

Problem is, I still don't think they're selling this in the US and I'm not sure when or if they ever will. I brought it back from my last trip to Akihabara.

If you haven't seen it already, there a huge thread on SRK about this topic because as you know fighting game players can be quite picky about input lag:
