So i am getting a new pc really soon. It will be mostly for 1080p gaming. 

 

Now i already have "Daewoo DC EP24R3BF"   24" TV/Monitor 

 

Will it be better if i upgrade to this one (23,5", 1080p, curved) 

I have heard that TV/Monitor will have some issues, don't know which one exactly

 

 

Also, whats up with 1080p and 27"? Some people told me that its really bad and that i shouldn't get it. 

I saw this one which is same model as one i mentioned before just 27". Will it be blurry/pixelated?

its about pixel density. a 1080p tv or monitor will have the same amount of pixels no matter what the size is so if you have the same amount of pixels but in a larger screen it will look less crisp. that being said a 27 inch 1080p monitor doesn't look awful and is more about personal preference.

well i would definitely recommend upgrading at some point. both of those monitors are quite nice and would be much better than your current monitor. i personally have a 24inch monitor and think it is plenty big for my tastes but if you really want a 27inch monitor the other one wont be a bad idea either. just be aware that the 27 inch won't have as sharp of an image. i personally wouldn't let the slightly less image sharpness stop me from getting a 27inch monitor if i really wanted one.

It's also not just about "pixel density" (btw I have a 27" monitor and its fine)

 

The reason why TV monitors dont make good computer monitors is because they have a high amount of input lag. TV's can have upwards of 100ms input lag, mostly because for a IR remote to a TV, changing channels or a volume doesnt need to be instantaneous. However, for gaming, 100ms extra input lag can be the difference between getting the quick scope in time, or dying like a noob and having your team grief you. It's talked about a little bit in this video. (Note, response time and input lag are not the same)
