I'm trying to decide if its worth it to replace my monitor. Sure it works and its not bad. Doesn't have a direct HDMI connection but it does have DVI-D. Its a 24" widescreen HP monitor and has 5ms (Yeah there's some 2 and even 1ms monitors but in reality 5 miliseconds is hardly capable of human being to notice). The nice thing is that the resolution is the old 1920 x 1200. Now I know movies don't show anymore than 1080p but games can utilize that higher resolution. Now here's the other monitor I am considering:
Any brand 23.6-27" monitor. LED backlit or LCD is fine. No more than 5ms (2-3 seems typical these days). 1920 x 1080 (I can compromise if this monitor type is better) resolution. HDMI (kinda nice not having to use the ol' DVI-DVI cable that cost an arm and a leg). The most interesting thing of note is 120Hz.
My ultimate question is, will I notice more of a difference stepping down from 1920x1200 to 1920x1080 or stepping up from 60Hz to 120Hz. Money isn't the issue so yeah you could say I should just stick with the HP 24" but if there is a difference and the 120Hz will make it look a bit better, i'll consider upgrading. Also is there a difference in visual quality between DVI-D and HDMI?
