I could either get a 19 inch 1080p monitor or a 24 inch 720p tv for gaming. i hear gaming on a monitor makes the image quality sharper but i wwould like to know if that's true and which option i should go for.

I would say 24" TV. You can't really tell the difference from 720p and 1080p on a monitor that small (or even 24") anyway :3

Look, get a 32" Samsung 1080P TV. Then again, all I see is their 32" 720P TVs these days. Look, either should be good, but perhaps you could get a splitter, and hook up your PC (maybe a gaming PC), your cable, and your gaming systems in the monitor. I would recommend the Flatscreen TV though.

1080p. Don't go any lower. The difference is huge. And yes, even on a 24" monitor.

Also depends on the games, most PS3 games are native 720p, and if you manually make them upscale to 1080p they just look bad

Of course, if you're wanting it for the Wii U or whatever, I guess it would be good.

Actually most PS3 and Xbox games tend to be below 720p. I could probably count the number of games out that actually run in 1080p on the consoles. The Modern Warfare games run below 720p and games like Crysis 2 run well below even that. I assumed since we are talking about a monitor this is also for a computer. Which even without PC games, is still nice to have on high resolutions.
