Default The importance of bigger monitor?

I am currently using a Samsung 19 inch monitor, and am thinking of getting a BenQ 24 inch monitor (G2420HD, ppl say it is ok for its price)
I mostly play sims (CloD, RoF, old IL-2) and sometimes FPS (Red Orchestra, Arma2).
Do you guys think it is worth getting? Will it improve my gaming experience much?

My 25 inch ASUS is one of the best investments I've made yet toward my sims. You will love it.

remember that higher res takes a bigger bite out of your frames.

I got an 27 inch (monitor) and can't hardly remember what my previous 20 inch was like. I could never go back.
Haven't someone stated that higher res makes the plane dots in the distance come out later than on lower res?!?

well this was a phenoma that happened in il2 1946, but not exactly as you say it.

il2 was made thinking of a specific resolution, lets assume it was 800x600 (wich is false but i cant remenber the real one). and lets comapre with a 2560x1400 monitor.

a plane will appear as a single pixel at 10 km for both this monitors, the difference is that a pixel at 800x600 is far bigger than pixel at 2560x1400, so it made easier too spot for a lower res monitor.

not sure if this is in clod.
