2. I can't really afford for now either a bigger monitor or a better vid card (currently ti4200 128MB with slight o/c). But if I were to upgrade to better vid card (such as 12 pipe G7x) I'd get a used 21" IBM CRT.
3. IBM G76 (8648), 17" CRT really nice looking (excellent colors), 1152x864@85Hz (I don't go higher res, going below 85Hz sucks, it does 1600x1200 60Hz), not trinitron/diamondtron so no annoying dark lines, not quite flat but I love it as it is.
planning to use a second 17" CRT which'll be probably plugged on a Banshee PCI (no dual head on my gf4).

Look what is coming out soon I paid more than twice that price for my 23 inch crt some years ago. So a 6 ms 24 inch at that price is a bargain.
As LCD prices drop so much, no wonder why people want to be able to use more and more theses High resolutions.

1. 2560 x 1024 (2 LCDs with 1280x1024 native resolutions)
2. Not planning to upgrade to a R5x0 as my NV40 seems to be doing fine and I am aiming for the second gen of DX10 cards (maybe a R500 could be in the cards though in 2006, depending on what games come out and how the RSX based platform looks game wise although I am liking the R500 platform features with online and HD resolutions on VGA monitors)
3. Two Hyundai L90D+

2. No.
3. Hitachi 50v500
The TV's native resolution is actually a bit above 1280x720, but running it at 1920x1080 gives me a visibly superior image (and also a bit of free SSAA.) I'd love to run this resolution in every game I play at 4xAA and 8xAF as a bare minimum. Right now I can play HL2 at approximately those settings and do pretty well, but many other games can't churn it out.

Speaking of, I pretty much got confirmation on widescreen support for the PC version.
