I vote 24", but it all comes down to personal preference. Some say 27" is too big while others say 24" is too small...so yea.

Kinda depends how far away you sit... I'd go 27 because on my 24 i find myself leaning in often on FPS games...

Depends on the resolution. 1080p? Anything above 24" looks blown up and isn't sharp enough. 1440p? 27" is a pretty great size. Nice and sharp (sharper than a 24" 1080p screen) and isn't too big. 28-ish inches is as big as I like to use. Anything bigger and it becomes cumbersome for gaming. Having to turn your head to see the sides of the screen gets old pretty quick.

Depends on how far your monitor would be positioned on your desk and far you sit back from it. ;)

Because you're going 1080p I'd say 23" is good.
