20" 16:9 vs 22" 16:10

[TerioN]

Hey guys, I'm gonna buy a new monitor, but I'm stuck on which one to buy...

Acer X203H bd Black 20" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor (16:9)

or

Acer 22" Widescreen LCD Monitor With 5ms Response Time (P221WD) (16:10)
http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...on=L&langid=EN

They cost about the same, because with the newegg one, I have to pay for shipping. With the futureshop one, I can just pick it up in store. So the real question is, is an extra 2" worth having a 16:10 resolution? My PC is a general one, I look at websites alot, I play games, and I watch alot of television and movies. Is the extra 2" worth having black bars while I'm watching movies? I'm stumped :(

With the 16:10 you will have just as much viewing area wile watching movies even with the black bars. And 16:10 is standart in computer displays so you will have more support.

Is 16:10 really the standard? I haven't read that anywhere o_O

2" makes a bigger difference than you might think. Get the 22". ;)

I read somewhere that the true measurement for a 22" is actually 21.6", that true? cuz if so i bought my ASUS 21.5" for like $180, and it's full 1080p.
