I use a 27" screen for my PC and PS4 Pro, and play while sitting at my desk. For this kind of set-up 27" is ideal.

32” was my baby, switched to a 36” and that messed my game up

Well are you thinking about PC or console. PC I sit close to my monitor so I play at 27” but console I sit pretty far so I play on a huge screen, not sure the in though

The 24" monitor on my desk is plenty. But if you're sitting further away then bigger is better.

I would say depends how close you are to your set up I'm prettt close and the 38 is amazing

I don’t know about size (I bought 43”) but the Philips ambilight is amazing.

I just got a 75 incher and sit about 9 feet away. I upgraded from a 55 inch, and it has made a big difference for me.

But then, I am old and nearsighted…

That answer depends on a lot of factors. Like what you play and if you are competitive and how far you sit from it.

Pretty much anything that you don't have to turn your head to see part of the screen though.

Big

Depends on how far you are sitting from it.

I sit about 8ft away and use a 65" with no issues, and could easily go up to 75"

The only logical answer is actually a question:

How far away from the TV are you sitting ?...

Well, there’s multiple factors to consider. So it’s not really easy to just say ‘this size of tv is the best for gaming.’ Obviously going bigger will get a bigger picture but if it’s the same resolution as a smaller tv, than the overall picture fidelity will be worse. If you can get a 4K or 8k or whatever the hell k they’re up to now, than it should be better for a larger picture, as in, the fidelity wouldn’t really be noticeable to the human eye. It will be as good looking as you’ll be able to perceive.

You also have to consider viewing distance. You could get a 65 inch tv, or even an 80 inch tv, but in either case it’s safe to say there will be a relative ‘optimal’ viewing distance so if your room will not accommodate that distance, than it won’t be a good fit.

I have a ps4 and a switch and game on a 55 inch tv from about ten feet away and I’m perfectly happy with it. Someday I’d love to get a 65 or 70 inch 4K tv in a darker better environment room at an optimal distance, but that’s in the future.

My two cents.

I play on an 80 inch 4k and the switch graphics are still rather good as are the PS4 with no huge notable loss in fidelity. I sit probably about 13'-15' away from it and the only real issue I run into which I didn't really think about is that text can be pretty tough to read from that distance but other than that I really enjoy it.

I use to run on a big screen, then I got a top Asus laptop gamed on that for a few years now I'm back on council and enjoy and perform better on a much smaller screen, I don't play on anything bigger than a 30 odd inch anymore. That's my opinion

I think 42" & up should be 4K. 55" & up definitely

I use a 34" monitor. Crisp clear, and everything fits in peripherals nicely. And u don't really notice the size IMHO. If ur playing a game u like anyway, I feel you get sucked into that. Couch coop however, go bigger

Depends on the space it's in, where you play from and how it's displayed. You might just get used to it or get the smaller one, benefits of the smaller one is the picture will be a tad better bc of the whole pixel thing (idk the tech talk but when I was getting mine the guy explained it in way more detail needed)

34” personally

It entirely depends on how far away you're sitting

My tv here is 55 inches. If you have a huge or even a medium living room, that should fit.

24” monitor is the best for me.. used to play on my 55” tv and my kd improved from 0,69 to 2,20!

I run a 60" 4K. 65" or 72" would be better. I hate wearing my glasses lol.

50 to 55, you won't sense a big difference.

back when i gamed on 360, a 42in tv was ideal. now I game on a 35in ultrawide, and I think that's about the right size for my setup, afterall the curve does make the screen seem less wide and is immersive as hell.

Smaller Televisions are better for the same reason gaming monitors are smaller (27"- 32"). Less distance for your eyes to travel is better for reaction time. Smaller televisions have better response times as well.

Depends on how far away you sit from the screen, there is a chart that relates distance to size.

I've never needed bigger than a 42 for standard-distance (around 6-7ft from seat to screen) couchbound play.

Edit - apparently I'm Heimdall or something idk

Got a 32" monitor after everybody I game with started buying them. Total game changer for shooters.

Gaming Monitor, made me a better player for sure

I think it’s a personal decision for everyone. I moved to a 32 inch from a 24 inch and the immersion for games is impressive. I don’t think I’d want that size for a competitive shooter though.

I prefer 24" for 1080p and 27" for 1440p.

Everyone else seems not mentioning an important factor: how far away from the monitor (table depth). The rough estimations are:

60-70cm depth -> 24"-27"

80cm depth -> 27-32"

100cm depth -> 34"

4:3 for crt nostalgia

1:1 for windows XP nostalgia

16:9 for general use

32:9 for ebic wide FOV MLG headshots

The best size for gaming is the one that suits your specific preferences.

I don’t think that there is an ideal size, but I’m just used to what I have been using for around 2 years now, a 32” screen.

The native resolution is 4K @240Hz.

27 inch. But 1080p looks like sh*t in 27inch

This is my ideal screen size

Would love to buy a 28 inch 4K oled one day, ideal for me

24 inch, QHD display resolution(1440p) with 144hz refresh rate- this godly combination is too good to be abused by the monitor industry
