I'd say it is only relevant for the display adapter's performance.

As I understand it, 32 vs 24 doesn't affect the monitor's appearance, 
color-wise.  Rather display adapter operations on pixel data can be performed 
much faster with each pixel stored as a 32-bit word instead of parsing 24-bit 
strings into 32-bit HW.  Perhaps someone who is more familiar with this systems 
hardware area can better describe it.
