As the title says. I was pretty happy with my 19" monitor, and with ArmA2, on the whole. Then, my brother gave me his newish 24" monitor because he is switching to dual slightly smallers.
Doing so has enabled me to go from 1620x1050 to 1920x1200 resolution, and this has made a big difference. Why? Because, with such a large number of pixels, I have been able to turn off antialiasing in ArmA2. Now I get frame rates that are as good as OFP:DR's, with the added benefit that ArmA2 is not OFP:DR. I have also increased the view distance by 500m, and the only cost for all of this is that distant hillsides are ever so slightly jagged. Otherwise, one cannot even notice the jaggies on anything close up or at medium range, and certainly during battle things look great and silky smooth. Also, because the monitor is larger, it is just plain easier to see things, and to be more immersed in the environment of Chernarus.
The benefit has carried over to most of my other games and applications, too, so if you are wondering how to improve the ArmA2 experience, get thee a bigger monitor, and reap the benefits not just with ArmA2, but in your entire PC experience.
