I was considering buying this monitor; 

http://www.newegg.co...N82E16824236052

But I was a little concerned with the odd size - 23.6" 

Will the size affect the ratio or resolution at all, opposed to a screen that was an even 23" or 23.5"?

That monitor should be fine for gaming, all manufacturers give a different screen size for some reason but the resolution is 1900 x 1080 so that is high def. Just remember that most built in speakers sound like crap.

I'd go with a Hanns-G monitor TBH, ASUS support has been slipping lately so if anything does go wrong you might want another company that will have your back better than ASUS has been doing as of late.


Off to ruck driving school. Gonna be AFK mostly till sometime around July or August :)

Intel 3770k (Supplied by Intel), MSI Z77A GD65 (Supplied by ccokeman), NVIDIA GTX 690 (Supplied by NVIDIA), Mushkin Chronos 120GB HDD (Supplied by Mushkin), Dominator Platinum 16GB (Supplied by Corsair), Corsair 600T Case (Supplied by Corsair), Corsair AX860 PSU (Supplied by Corsair), H100i (Supplied by Corsair), Asus DVDRW (Supplied by Bosco)

 

I am extremely grateful to Bosco, Ccokman, Nvidia, Corsair, Intel and Mushkin as winning the hardware is making my life far easier as it has helped tremendously with the transition from P/T Little Caesars employee to becoming an OTR truck driver. Again, than you all and I will be showing my gratitude this coming Xmas ;)
