New 24 inch monitor

[TerminatorRobocop222]

I want to buy new monitor. Im looking at Samsung SyncMaster S24B350H. I will use this monitor for gaming. Which is better for gaming - TN or IPS? Should I buy Samsung or DELL?

You ask what is better for gaming and i can tell you this: IPS is for extremely accurate colors with a better viewing angle, TN is for lower response times which is good for fps games and they are almost always cheaper per inch.

Will 1680x1050 resolution look good on 1980x1080 monitor?

It will be stretched so I would say no.

And how much FPS I loose in games if I use 1980x1080 instead of 1680x1050? For example in Battlefield 3.

10-15% FPS loss
