If you want to use a LCD as a computer monitor, I suggest getting one that is 1080P with 1900 by 1200 resolution.

but there are no lcd tv's that use the resolution 1920x1200, it's 1920x1080. That's why all hd formats are 1080p.

eg. $699

We have that TV ( won from Pepsi) and its connected to our PC since the computer is close to it, We have used it to watch series and movies on it and its fine as far as i can see

I mainly would be using it for Pc gaming, and xbox 360 however
if i were to purchase a monitor lets say a 24" that will give me 1080p gaming on both pc and xbox right ?

but hd gaming on only a 24" monitor, everything would be too small to look at

where as a 32" tv would be much bigger :D
