Right now I have a 19'' KDS Extreme Flat XF-9e and a 9800np. I want to upgrade to a 6800GT soon but i'm not sure if a monitor upgrade would be better. I'm kinda confused about resolutions and refresh rates, but this monitor can only do 85hz at 1280x960 on the desktop, is that good? So does that mean that ingame at 1280x960 I will max at 85fps? I dont wanna spend a lot on a kickass video card and max at 70hz at 1600x1200. Does the monitor really matter that much?Everyone says to keep vsync on to prevent tearing, but im pretty much stuck at 1024x768 in games. Does a new monitor really help tearing and fps?
