So I've been planning to upgrade my monitor for a long time, and reckon I will have the cash to do so pretty soon. But the question is, do I go for max resolution (30", 2560x1600), or do I go for 3D? As far as I'm aware, the limited bandwidth of DVI and HDMI standards means the res is limited to 1680x1050. Does 3D make much of a difference? I've never seen anything in 3D.
I'm more of a casual than hardcore gamer, but watch a lot of films and TV on my system.
I'm also pretty interested in the new LED / OLED tech that's coming onto the market; I've not seen much of it apart from walking past a few TVs in a supermarket and noting the difference, but assumed that at least some of said difference was due to the amount of time the older, non-LED screens had been used for.
I'm also toying with the idea of going all out and getting a 1080p projector, but I'm guessing it'd have pretty poor response times for gaming? Really don't know anything about projectors, other than a good one is pretty expensive..!
I'm currently running a 17" 1280x768 screen from about 2004. It does the job, but I just want a bigger res for general productivity.
What do you guys think? All comments gladly received.
