Even with a high-end videocard and cpu, gaming at this monitor's native resolution would be a problem. But the built-in scaler on this particular monitor supposedly does such a superb job that the resolution can be lowered WITHOUT LOSING VIDEO QUALITY WHILE GAMING. The combination of enormous size and sharpness for internet, etc. and the ability to game at lowered resolutions for speed would be perfect for me. Can someone PLEASE tell me if this monitor's scaler indeed makes gaming at lowered resolution WITH VIRTUALLY EQUAL VIDEO QUALITY TO THAT OF THE NATIVE RESOLUTION a reality, as it would seem to remove every reason for me NOT to buy it. Thanks very much to all with hands-on experience with this monitor who can answer as to what's true and what's not on this issue.
