Im getting a Samsung Syncmaster 19" 1444x900 1080p LCD tv and i was wondering if its good enough for PS3 gaming?

I don't recommend it. That's smaller than my computer screen and i think the computer screen is to small to watch movies in it or play games in it. Hell i think my 37" LCD is small.
19" is good enough. make sure you are happy with it..... my g/f she has a 42", I never liked it. Im happy with my 32". and I wouldnt mind have it smaller. 26" is better for my room tho.
My monitor is bigger than that (22")... hmmm. I'd say if you plan on sitting in front of the screen like you would a computor monitor while playing it would be fine. If you plan on laying back on a couch or something while playing you're going to need something bigger.
That is completely up to you and based on what you can afford of course. In my opinion I won't buy anything below a 32 inch but even then I would like to get a 40 plus inch for gaming thinking about saving up around 2 thousand dollars or so to get a really good one but I have seen some for around $1000 that look good so I don't know but around $1000 should get you a solid hd tv.
19" is fine for ps3 gaming in the bedroom. I have a 19"HD tv that I got for $200 last black friday and it works well when i play ps3 in my room but you need to sit close to the tv to see finer details like hud #s. I am lucky though when I am at my parents home we have my ps3 upstairs on the 19" and my bro's ps3 down on the 42" Bravia in the living room. I'd look for something bigger if you are going to be playing in the living room though.
Yeah never mind yeah get the 19" if you are gonna sit that close and its for a small room. Hell, even with the big tv in the living room I have a tendency to sit closer on the nearest couch.
honestly, its never enough, when i bought a 32'' i want bigger, got myself a 37'', then i went to a 42'' sony bravia, lol, so in the end it all depends on wat u want and if u think its enough,
It completely depends on your situation. If you plan on sitting about 2' away from the screen then 19" is fine. If you are planning on sitting on the couch while playing I suggest something 30" or more. As some people have said, it's all down to how much money you have to spend on a tv. I have a 43" but I sit about 6' away from it. I'm planning on getting >50" soon. Aside from all of that. Go to a home electronics store. Stare at the screens from the distance that you are planning to view your games. Once you've found something comfortable, that's the size you should get.
I also use about a 19'' and if you get a good 19'' that you like and are comfortable with, you should have no problem, as I actually like my 19'' TV for gaming instead of a big screen for some games as you don't have to move your eyes for certain information.
depends on how close your going to sit ect. IMHO its farto small. i f you can get a little bigger. i have a 26' vizio and i still wish i had at least a 32' dispite sitting only 4 foot away. 26 is ok but bigger is often better lol. remember you dont have to spend extra for those higher name brand sets. some of the cheaper brands get great pictures. some of the vizios's look just as good as the samsungs. go to a store, play with the settings and judge for your self. but 19' in a wide screen is very small.
