2 19" monitors or 1 22", mainly surfing, plus playing some games?

Looking to upgrade my old 19" 4:3 TFT to something a little bigger, and can't decide between 2 19" widescreen monitors for around £250, or 1 22" screen for about the same price. Will be connected to a dual DVI 7900GT, 4200 X2 @ 2.4ghz, 2gb Corsair XMS machine. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies, will probably go for 1 22" then, any recommendations OTHER than the fantastic looking Samsung one? Have currently got a 40" Samsung LCD TV which I love, but was ideally looking to spend less than the 22" Sammy costs on a screen nearly as good, any ideas?

Have gone for the Sammy 226, thanks again for the replies.

could you not just keep your old 19" as well so you've got dual monitors and the 22"? When I went from a 17" to a 20.1" widescreen I kept the 17" and stuck it in portrait - it's great for browsing the web. how many sites do you know of that are designed to be wider than 1024px?

The 19" screen will be sold to my bro as soon as I get my new one, bargain for him at £50, I paid £200 for it 2 years ago! :eek:
