for playing game CRT monitor are best. with fast moving object you will notice motion blurr in LCD monitor. lcd monitor are only better for viewing still picture. even reading is more comfortable in CRT then LCD.

Blurr=slow response time of monitor. If response time<8 ms, no blurs r visible. Try Viewsonic monitors, have respnse <4ms ...much better than any CRT

even reading is more comfortable in CRT then LCD.

No way...LCD strains eye much less than CRT. LCD tends to give a smoothing effect to the eye...its better
For gfx, choose between GeForce 7600 GT or ATi X850 xt.........these cards will cost arnd 12-15k and provide high-end gfx, if u dont wanna spend so much then try 6600 GTX , should be available arnd 8k

@Mystichalo: What is 6600GTX??? Never heard of it. Anyway, I do not think x850xt supports shader model 3.0. 7600GT would be a better bet.

LOL, GTX is nothing but overclocked 6600GT, sold by BFG to show that their cards r faster....
ATi cards dont list the shader model they use...just SMARTSHADER technology

Anyways, yes, 7600GT has the upper hand between the two...but i m sure it would be a bit costlier(by arnd 3-5k) than X850xt.
