Acer AL2671W 26" LCD TV Monitor!

Seriously thinking about buying this, only one thing that will stop me if any, the resolution, 1280x768, but then again, if it looks ok onscreen then I don't need as much GPU power as say maybe a Dell 2405, plus look at the price...

Anyone know, seen or even had experience with any other LCD TV/Monitors that have 1280x768 naive and gaming?

The final test, was one that would really put the 16ms response time through its paces – gaming. To make the most of this large screen, I fired up Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike: Source. This has a widescreen mode and offered up aresolution of 1,280 x 768. To get a smooth frame rate I was hooked up to an Evesham system we have in for review, powered by two nVidia 6800GT graphics cards in SLI configuration. My impression of the image was actually slightly disappointing initially – it looked very grainy. I soon realised that I’d turned up anti-aliasing to 6x in the game, which isn’t actually supported by nVidia. Dropping to 4x kicked anti-aliasing into gear and made for a jaw droppingly good image. Playing Counter-Strike: Source on a large widescreen display, with silky smooth frame rates and surround sound is pretty much the definition of gaming nirvana, and I must admit it kept me glued to the testing seat for hours.
