I have this screen. unfortunately with a stuck pixel, but I think I just had bad luck (and going in an airplane didn't help either I suppose). I'm very glad about it, not too expensive for what it is.
I'd rather have a smaller screen than a bigger one when there's the same resolution when it comes to PC gaming, so that's why I'd rather choose a 24" over a 27.5" @ 1900*1200.

In the 24" range, the Samsung 245B is the daddy for price/performance using a TN panel. Though, if you can find the extra cash and want a monitor with a proper panel ( 
), you won't regret picking up the BenQ FP241W.

This LCD monitor is my currently baby.It is really a great monitor,I watch DVDs and play games on this baby and the quality is amazing,reaction time is 2ms and 3000:1 contrast.I love this baby,22"LCD,just a great monitor,for example,the quality in UT2004 is much better than with my old CRT monitor.I'm very happy with this one.
I'm using Hanns-G HG 216D: http://www.consumerelectronicsnet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=196038
As such, it supports all HD gaming consoles via Y-Pb-Pr. <-- that one is wrong though. The only inputs are HDMI and VGA and 3.5mm audio .

I don't think any of the 20/22" support true 1080p cause that'll require 1920x1200 resolution, unless there is some that uses matrix with smaller pixel size, which in turn will significantly increase the price of the display, may be even double it. Also note that in any case with LCD display you will get black lines on top and bottom of the pic, since LCD Displays are 16:10 while LCD TVs are 16:9 and 1080p is a 16:9 resolution.
Er don't buy a monitor to use as an HDTV. For one thing they use a different aspect ratio. Second... they don't habe a digital tuner. And third they are tiny. WHy would you want 1920x1080 on a 23" monitor (streched to 1920x1200). And yes... 22" monitors are 1680x1050. And unlike HDTVs LCD monitors aren't designed to be run at anything but they're native resolution (unless you do your reasearch and spend a good amount for a high quality monitor).
Buy a real full blown HDTV. And 1080p resolution is not as important as it sounds. What's more important is contrast ratios. It's not easy to tell the difference between 720p and 1080i/p. But it is easy to notice a TV/Monitor w/ a bad scaler or delivers poor colors and bright whites and black blacks.

Aha,you wanna get a monitor which supports a res like 1920x1080,hui,I don't know any PC monitors with that support of resolutions,all of them only supporting 16:10 (1680x0150,1920x1200...).On the last days I saw some monitors with this support of your resolution,but there are so many different monitors,it is very hard to make a good decision,because many of them have a faster reaction time or a lower contrast.I don't have any ecperience with those monitors myself,just because I never bought one and they are expensive.

Jeebus, a 24" LCD (1900x1200) will display a 1080 image and not be stretched if it supports 1:1 pixel mapping.
