21.5 or 23 inch

Hey guys, I want to ask, I mainly game and I don't know what size I should go for. I haven't decided yet but the resolution should be 1080p and I mainly use it for gaming. I sit about 2-3 feet away from the monitor. Thanks in advance.

21" is far to small.smallest i would go is 23"-25" I have a 27" and i love it.

I'll second going with a 23".

24" would be better, though. Unless you're running triple.

size doesn't really matter. In fact, larger size just takes up more room on the desk. Unless your monitor is going to be more than a meter away, 21-inch is just fine.

21.5, especially if you stand 2 to 3 feet away.

I have one 21 inch and one 24 inch screen and I very much like the extra screen space for the 24.

Having used both sizes, it does depend. Obviously if you are limited for space go for the 21.5." 21.5" does have a higher PPI (Pixels Per Inch) density, which does matter to some people. Personally I use 23," but the people who instant bash 21.5" in favour of 27" are wrong. Yeah, great for you if you can afford a 27" 1440p screen, but some people can't (or even want.)

23 inch ips is great for me, 24 would be good as well but 21.5 would be too small in my opinion
