I'm looking to upgrade my monitor and graphics card soon. I have an old 17" LCD that sits right in front of me on my desk. All I use this computer for is gaming....I've been out of the loop for a couple years now and am wanting to get back into it. I was thinking about getting a 20" or 22" widescreen LCD. What would be a good size/resolution for a monitor sitting maybe 3 feet from your face? I assume I'll need a new video card since the last one I bought was 2-3 years ago. It was good at the time but I doubt it stacks up to todays games and higher resolutions.

What would be a good recommendation for a video card that can handle the native resolutions of a 20" or 22" monitor?
