You have to spend both. Using a big size monitor, you will need a good GC as well.

But for me, I guess what I can afford and what I need. No need to spend so much. Get what you like.

I reckon buy monitor 1st is always better. U can still enjoy ur movies n surfing on a much bigger screen. Then after u haf the monitor u can gauge what ur requirements r for gaming n buy an appropriate card for ur budget. Buying a super gfx card 1st n using it on a small monitor just doesnt make sense.

hey.. yeah never thought bout that before.. u give me a new idea hehe.. and the price of GC drop faster than the monitor as well rite.. hehe really thanks for your word notworthy.gif

I am planning to get a Wide Screen LCD for my computer.... brows.gif

And here is the problem I would like to find out anout wide screen.. tongue.gif

The GC I'm using is Shapphire 9550 Turbo with DVI, S-Video and Normal output, Driver unknown... sweat.gif

Gaming Counter-Strike Source
1. Will the wide screen function? tongue.gif
2. will shows only in the middle of the screen with 2 blank space at each side? cry.gif
3. will I be able to look wider then normal monitor, can view wider space then noraml? brows.gif
4. Does my GC support it? sweat.gif
5. OR does it require new driver update? shakehead.gif
6. or does it need some software to enabled it? shakehead.gif
7. or will the character in the game looks like Dwarft as it will stretch to the side? cry.gif
8. or you have more information? please let me know... Thanks. notworthy.gif

First of all, not all game are able to utilize widescreen. Therefore, you will need to get a widescreen LCD with a 1:1 ration support or else, the game is going to be stretched. If it is able to perform 1:1 ratio support, then yes, it will be in the middle with 2 black lines on the side.
