antrad88: 1080p at 32" will look awful if you play at your desk close to the monitor. 24" screen is biggest I would go with 1080p.
Hirkis: That's the first time I hear such thing. Why do you think it will look awful if you don't mind me asking ? If the source is 1080p and not upscaled 720p like so many PS3/XBOX360 games, then I don't see why it'd look bad, in fact when it comes to TVs, 32 inches are the smallest screens you can get to enjoy full HD, and more often than not, it's subpar technology, the best 1080p TVs
start at 40 inches. I know that TVs and monitors have different technologies, but still, it's a point to consider.
You are never so close to the TV like you are to the monitor when sitting at the desk, so the low DPI and larger pixels are not noticeable when far away. I have a 24" 1080p monitor and in some cases I can see the pixels from where I'm sitting(and I don't even have a great eyesight), at 32" pixels would be even bigger and more noticeable, aliasing would also be more noticeable. IMO 32" 16:9 monitors should be at least 1440p, 4K would be ideal.
