Im going to be studying computer games design for uni and will be focusing on art and design so I was wondering weather the extra 4" is worth the purchase?

Thanks for all your replies! Two screens it is.
Is there any software or applications which would be useful for dual screen?

Thanks

Thanks again, my mind is set .
I mainly asked because I've seen a lot of people buy these largers screens and dont understand why they prefer to pay out the cash for a few more inch space when they can buy a new monitor for the same price.

Chears again to all!

Edit:
Just a quick question: will dual screen effect performance?

Well thanks for all the info! My two new monitors should come tuesday, cant wait.

Now all I need is some good wide/dualscreen wallpapers .
