What's the best kind of moniter for gaming?

It's that time of year again (b-day!) when I get a new toy to add to my tech pile. What kind of monitor is best for gaming?

 

A hdtv. get a new video card with a s-video out and then connect it to a plasma hdtv.

 

Computer LCDs have higher resolutions

So, I'd daressay even an HDTV isn't ideal.

 

Right you are adrynalyne. right you are.

 

Computer LCDs have higher resolutions but are they realy good for gaming
i heard of shadows and crappy performance.....

I still have a samsung syncmaster 753df i am thinking of upgrading !!!!!

 

I do hear loads of complaining about lcds & ghosting & ... on and on. I use a medium range lcd, not the most exspensive one, but it still works great for gaming and such.

 

Anything under 12 ms response time will be very good for gaming and will be very hard to detect any ghosting. I saw some crazy deals on newegg that had 19" with 5ms or so response time. Anything 8ms or better is very, very good.
