1x 20" Viewsonic VA2012W Or 2x 19" Belinea 1925S1W?

Well I have a Viewsonic VA2012W 20", And im thinking of getting dual monitor setup, Im not sure however if i want to buy 2x 19" Belinea 1925S1W And sell this 2012/Have it as a spare, Or get another VA2012W, So what is your opinions? And how does the Belinea 1925S1W Compare to the VA2012W? I know this monitor is good for games, movies etc, but im not sure if its better than the Belinea?

Also whats the difference between the origional VA2012W I own and the new

VA2012w-2 that is for sale on OcUK?

Also will my X1900XTX Be able to manage 2x20" 1680x1050 Monitors?

well if you moved to the Belinea you'd be sacrificing quite a lot of resolution real estate which might be a shame. Since you already have a VA2012W it's probably best just to get another one imo. Performance wise it should be quite comparable to the Belinea since both use 8ms rated TN Film panels, nothing fancy as far as overdrive or electronic enhancements and both panels from reputable but average (normally) suppliers.

edit: no difference in the spec between the VA2012W and VA2012W-2, i'll see if i can get clarification

It should be fine running the desktop however, if you're looking to span games over both monitors, you're gonna be pushing it a little bit there.

1680*1050 in *most* games with your card should be fine.

I will no doubt be running the games on just one monitor, and so far i have had no problems with that, Oblivion + Max Settings + AA and AF @ 1680x1050 = Drool

I wouldnt suggest you try going back from widescreen to 4:3, I certainly couldnt get used to it - it just felt wrong

two 20" would be great, I am lucky enough to have one 24" Dell in landscape and an older 20" Dell in portrait and its fabulous

The Belinia is Widescreen
