Hey guys, was just wondering if anyone could help me pick a monitor?

I currently have a dual monitor setup and its kind of annoying, i don't really use the two screens.

my monitors atm are;

LG FLATRON W2246 ( use that for my games )
HP 2010i

I'd rather have one sc something with nice features and good for gaming.

My graphics card is an GTX 670 palit jetstream

Cheers.
 
All gaming oriented screens are the exact same resolution as your LG, so if you're going to replace both you're going to lose out on workspace.
You can move up in size (up to 27" monitors) with the same resolution but it's not actually going to show you anything more than the LG.

So cheapest solution would be to simply get rid of the HP. Guess you're looking for something more, the Samsung S23A700D is an interesting option then. 120Hz so optimal for gaming and in all other regards a really nice screen as well. You won't be able to use the 3D options with a NVIDIA card but you're looking at a completely different price if you want a NVIDIA 3D monitor and 3D glasses.

[edit]
Oh you did mention budget in the title. The Samsung exceeds it despite being one of if not the cheapest 120Hz screen.
One of the best gaming screen around that budget is the Iiyama e2473hds although OCUK doesn't seem to be selling it atm.
