I recommend 23 inch, 24 really starts to bother me personaly(personal taste, might not apply to you) I definetly do not recommend beyond 24, then you won't be able to see the whole screen without moving your eyes.

I have 23 inch monitors at home(LG monitors, full HD, wide viewing angle etc...), and they really are heaven, I would recommend them to anyone looking for pc monitors.

I have a LG 24MP56HQ it's a beauty, i wouldn't call it a gaming monitor but the IPS is gorgeous and it has outstanding view angles. I think its around 160$ from pcaneparts

I have found Samsung TVs to be gorgeous with PC games, I have a series 6 3D TV 40'' and it's miles better to play games on it than my Benq 24'' FHD, since it's a 3D active TV I have boosted without side effects the Hz from 60 to 75hz making the games insanely fast when reaching 75fps.
So TVs can easily counted in, only 1440p 144hz can be better in terms of gaming experience.
This TV samsung will make you win a TV channels and a USB slot to watch movies without starting your PC, it looks like its input lag is also very good, after you have to see how many devices you want to plug in it, if it has 1 HDMI port only you won't be able to plug anything else than your PC...

LG 24MP56HQ or HP Pavilion 23xi - If you do not want to ship from outside.

Geez we are a generation late in Lebanon, no G-Sync 122-144hz monitor, nor display-port inputs (at least in the entry and mid level monitors)

TVs for gaming monitors=input lag. Not that it's not playable. But it will matter to some people who play FPS games online.

I recommend a Viewsonic VX-2452MH Wide 24" LED, its 277$ at pcandparts.

Yep only in this case it could be somehow slightly slow, but in single person gaming it's a royal joy :)

I have a 40" Hyundai 1080P TV in my room that has a 10M HDMI cable going to my PC to duplicate my screens. Online Grid 2 with a 360 controller on that thing while I lay in bed is epic ^^

vegetaleb

Same here!
I am using a xbox 360 gamepad wireless for PC, playing from my bed on my TV like if I had a PS4 (but with 60-75fps)
Internet browsing and office work on my Benq monitor right under the TV :)

@Vegetable how did you enable the wireless capability of the x360 using a blue tooth dongle ; and is the HDMI linked from your Graphic Card to your TV the main HDMI (in other words when the computer starts it starts on your TV) or how did you configure to enable double screens (TV and Desktop Led Screen).

I bought the wireless adapter branded Microsoft from SCC Lebanon in Dekwaneh, once you install it on USB (Microsoft drivers) it can pair with your Microsoft Xbox 360 wireless controller.
In Beirut my 40'' TV is connected by HDMI to my gtx 970 and my 24'' monitor by DVI, when the PC start,even if I have shutdown windows on my TV, the mobo page will show on the monitor 1st then switch windows loading on the TV. At the mountain I have a 32'' TV that I also connect on HDMI, no monitor, everything even the mobo page show on it.
To switch from a screen to another,duplicate or expand just press the Windows button + P and choose :)

How much was the adapter? I'm thinking of shipping one. If it costs similarly, I might just buy it locally.
