This is just a survey, but do you think having a bigger monitor, lets say a 19" compared to a 15" will allow for better online gaming. Meaning it will be less difficult. Because I have noticed that when I go over my friends and play games like call of duty 2, halo pc, battlefield, I find it easier to aim and win. So does having a big screen give you a online advantage or in general a slight advantage in games.

You can definitely see things better, and run at higher resolutions. I would definitely say yes.

Hi
lol ive seen this effect before, "I have noticed that when I go over my friends and play games like,,etc"
is his pc / net speed better spec than yours? 15" screens are no good for games 17" is ok. may be its a combination of a lot of factors giving a better gameplay, try comparing frame rates between yours & the other pc any difference of say 30- 60 fps then yes you may be 'seeing/aiming better' what cpu & graphics cards are being used?
the upgrade path starts here.... ;)
