What is the difference between 1920x1200 and 1920x1080?

[ambam]

I'm getting a new beefy gaming PC and I'm planning on buying a new 1080p monitor. I was wondering which is better and offers a crisper image (particularly for gaming) 1920x1200 or 1920x1080.

Both resolutions are 1080p, but what is the difference between the Two?

Let's put it this way, one 24" screen TV has more pixels (1920x1200) than the other (1920x1080), which one would you take?

More pixels = more detail and crisper image quality, I'll take the 1920x1200.

1920x1200 is slightly bigger.
