I just built a new gaming system this week ( i5 2500k/hd6870/8gig 1333) I have a 19" monitor from 2006 that came with my dell xps 400. I bought a solid state drive with my build and it works fine by itself but gets BSOD when i try and transfer files from my other hard drives even after Firm ware updates. Any who I am going to take it back Would a 23.6 samsung led monitor be a good trade since i will have 150$ store credit? at micro center.



LONG STORY SHORT

23.6" led monitor vs 19"lcd worthy upgrade or save money?

If you're talking about going from 1280x1024 to 1920x1080, then yes. The 23.6" monitor would be a good choice in my opinion. Besides, with the old monitor, you could go dual screens.
