Birthday just passed... I got a whole bunch of money now to buy electronic goodies. On the list...new mouse/kb, speakers, games, and ATI 'fix card. I'm confused about the monitor though, right now i'm using a 17" CRT Flat Screen, it looks fine, and does it's job, but it's pretty damn bulky and doesn't really match my room too well w/ it's protruding ass. I'd like to buy an LCD but I hear games look like shit on those, is this true? Does anyone have screenshots er something?? Also worried about dead pixels...if i'm dishing out 500 bucks, I'll be really pissed if it's not perfect

, thoughts? opinions? thanks.
