Does anyone know if the Samsung SyncMaster 2343BWX (23") monitor is good for gaming? Costco has a great price on it which seems too good to pass up. It would be used with dual Nvidia 9800 GX2 graphics cards.
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply. That is good to hear. I like the higher resolution of the 2343BWX (2048x1152) but hadn't even heard of it until seeing it at Costco. My new DS system should arrive Wednesday so I'm looking for a nice monitor to go with it.
