I have a GTX560ti 2Gb and a choice of two monitors, One is the AOC 1080 HD 22" wide screen and the other a 17" - 4:3 at either 1024 x 768 or 1280 x 1024.

I like the 1080i widescreen but prefer and use my 17" 4:3 monitor for CloD. The reason is simple - the picture quality is superior - the 1080i AOC is absolute garbage in comparison. In a nutshell, a good GFX card needs a good quality monitor and monitor size is less important for me. I don't have the space for a super large screen anyway.

The other advantage of a smaller but good quality monitor is that I can have higher GFX settings and the card runs at a lower temperature because of the reduced resolution. In fact, the smaller monitor at native 1024 x 768 looks better than my 1080 HD ( a regrettable purchase and waste of money).
