aAre you even going to be gaming at a res of 2560x1600? Hell, do you even game, hopefully your GPU can handle that res.

Get the BenQ 22" HD monitor instead. It's smaller and has the same 1920x1200 resolution which means it's gonna be crisper.

okay but if I get that then I will not have as big of a screen... I am going to be using this as dual monitor replacement and as a h.d. Tv so I am not sure if that would be big enough...

My eyes are not too god, and I am not old, it is cause my eyes are just like that so a res at 1680x1050 is good enough, but that is one hell of a computer, only reason I'd have a build like that is for the raw power lol.

yeah, id recommend the monitor thats not from newegg due to it doesnt have Dual Link DVI.

Yeah i love my build, i just need to upgrade and custom make a watercooling system cause im starting to not be very impressed with the thermaltake one that i have, it gets a lot of air bubbles, and the pump doesnt circulate very fast.

here is the pc right now.....

Neither Of the monitors have that though... Wouldn't it be just about the same with a Hdmi to dvi adapter?

IMO the apple screens are the biggest  :censored: ing rip off i would never be willing to pay $3k+ for a 30" monitor... Especially when there are monitors that are just as good, they just dont have the apple logo on the front and back
