Strictly 1080p on my Panasonic TC-L32U3 since getting my 7970 OC, and lovin it.

Speaking of bang for buck eye candy though, this is a great video guide for those wanting to get into PC gaming for under 300 GBP or 500 USD. Build your own STEAM BOX! - How to build a gaming ...

Eh, ignore the link title. It's primarily about building a budget gaming PC. It just happens to show some Steam gaming bundles and freebies at the end.

THE_EGG · Jan 11, 2013, 12:40 AM

1080p 27" IPS, then old school 25" 1920 x 1200 and a backup 1080p screen.

manofthem · Jan 11, 2013, 12:44 AM

2560 x 1440 and it's beautiful. I still have my 1920 x 1080 for backup (you never know with this Korean monitor

)

theonedub · Jan 11, 2013, 12:46 AM

2560 x 1440 here as well, no complaints.

Delta6326 · Jan 11, 2013, 12:48 AM

I'm happy at 1080p, but would really enjoy 1440+

Maelstrom · Jan 11, 2013, 01:13 AM

1920x1200. It's pretty sweet.

DEFEATEST · Jan 11, 2013, 01:28 AM

2560x1600 and I would rob a bank if it ever stopped working!

radrok · Jan 11, 2013, 01:39 AM

2560x1600 + dual vertical 1920x1200 for work, tried triple 30" for gaming, too many pixels to push :\

KainXS · Jan 11, 2013, 05:36 AM

I'm on 1920x1200, perfect match for my work.

cdawall · Jan 11, 2013, 05:56 AM

3840x1050 for me looks awesome and not to many pixels for my 470's.

natr0n · Jan 11, 2013, 05:58 AM

2048x1152

Rare yet awesome.

I smell a CRT.
I was using a backup Trinitron last year when my LCD died, was gaming at that res.

Huddo93 · Jan 11, 2013, 08:50 AM

Just bought a new ASUS PB278Q 2560x1440. Absolutely loving it

Aquinus · Jan 11, 2013, 08:52 AM

I used to use a single 22" @ 1680x1050 then I got a 28" @ 1920x1200 that I use as my primary along with the 22". The 28" is showing signs that it might fail (yet again,) so I might end up replacing it with a 1440 display, but that depends on how my finances are doing in the next few months.

jihadjoe · Jan 11, 2013, 08:56 AM

2x 23" @ 1920x1080

Maban · Jan 11, 2013, 08:57 AM

Accept no less than 1920x1200. Next stop, 2560x1600.

Tatty_One · Jan 11, 2013, 09:39 AM

Had a 1440p, have reverted back to 1080p ONLY because in my study setup my old 27 inch was just too big and too close, no doubting the quality but a 24 inch IPS 1080p panel just fits better with where I am and what I do.

HammerON · Jan 11, 2013, 09:56 AM

Since I purchased my 30" Dell a couple years ago (2560x1600), there is no going back

Champ · Jan 11, 2013, 09:58 AM

Looks like there are more over 1080 too. I know some of these setups have to be stellar to run at a steady frame rate

Jack1n · Jan 11, 2013, 10:23 AM

Currently 1200p,wont go lower than 1080p and hoping to jump on 1440/1600p soon.

1nf3rn0x · Jan 11, 2013, 10:25 AM

I play at 1080p but don't mind anything inbetween down to 720p.

tacosRcool · Jan 11, 2013, 10:40 AM

I like and I'll my 1080p
