I am looking to upgrade my hardware. I would like to know what monitor sizes others are using and what size seems to be the best for EVE. I am currently on a 1280x1024 screen (19") now. |

I was on 1280x1024 up until a week ago. It's playable, but you really want more real estate for Windows Online. I switched to a 22" 16:10 (1680x1050 native) and have more than enough space for my scrubcasualbearing needs. |

I run dual 1080P, one 23.5" and the other 27". but be sure you'll have the workhorse graphics card to run it. I have a 560ti, and that's fine for one full quality client and another mid quality client. |

I'm looking at moving to a setup like that if I get a 670. |

The only way I have done gaming since 2006 has been on a 60" television. Sure most max out at 1080p, but it is cheaper than buying a second monitor, plus I don't have space in my room for a second screen. |

I have a SyncMaster XL2370. very nice and very light backlit monitor. Handles sun glare very well.
If your graphics card supports 2 video outputs I suggest you keep the old monitor and just run 2. I have 2 monitors currently both running different resolutions and different sizes. Windows basicaly configures it for you. Makes maps or brousing the forums whilst palying the game nice and easy |

Going from 1024x768 to 1920x1080 was like being blind and then suddenly being able to see again, I definitely recommend it! |

23" IPS 1920x1080 - dirty cheap today. Bright but still not exciting enough - probably should try 40" TV or 3 displays combined. |

The more pixels the better. The actual size will depend on what your eyes can handle.
I'm on 27" @-á2560+ù1440. It more than covers my window needs (wellGǪ it did, until the new inventory UI came and bloated things up by requiring more and larger windows than before).

I have 2 x 24" 1080p 1920*1080 which gets me a resolution of 3840*1080 if i want it, thats awsome, but i usually multi box with both screens.
I actually just got the 2nd screen 2 weeks ago and now i wonder how i ever lived without it.
twice the gameplay, twice the addiction.
TBH if you want to really appreciate eve go for 1920*1080 at least, you will get a 24" monitor for as little as -ú110 (gbp) for a decent budget monitor |

Same Club (if you know someone with a membership) has been having amazing prices on Samsung monitors. Cheaper then Amazon. I run Eve at the max and its lovely. |

Everything above 22" is fine. Two monitors if you're playing with alt.
I got 24" at 1920 and that's more than enough. |

It depends on your hardware, really. EVE doesn't need the latest and greatest computer or anything but if you run it in a high res then you'll need the hardware to back it up. 23" 1920x1080 here, no complaints. |
