im just about to buy a 22" widescreen monitor, and i currently have a 19" montitor, any issues having them both connected since different aspects (wsand non ws) id be using the 22" as main.

thanks

I do not think you will have any issues, as you can use nvidia control panel to set the different resolutions to either monitor.

Windows will let you apply different settings to each screen, so as above you will have no issues.

you will be fine.... untill the different screen sizes start to annoy you and you find yourself buying a second 22"

lol true, I have a wide 21 next to main wide 24 and I really feel like replacing the 21 with another 24 but just don't have the money :/.

They are useable and you would have no issues really aslong as you assign different apps to different screens. Ultramon is also a useful tool for >1 monitor

yeah i picked up my new monitor yesterday morning, after a bit of fiddling with settings i think i made the right choice! although i have to agree 19" next to the 22" looks a bit weird and isnt really "needed" but its nice

can now grind in wow and watch movies to pass the time better

got ultramon, shame they havent updated it in a while!

i went for the samsung 226bw in the end
