Hey,

I'm planning on getting an extra 2 monitors to go with my Samsung 226BW, but i'm not having much look choosing between them :(

19" ? 19" widescreen ? 20.1" (with the same res as my current) or a 22"

I can't really afford another two 226bw's but i have a budget of around £300, maybe a little over

Can anyone help me out with some suggestions?

Thanks :)

oh, and my pc specs:

abit ab9 pro
c2d 6400
2gb 800mhz
xfx 7900 gs

also, i was gonna buy a pci graphics card for the extra monitor... would this work ok? those matrox splitter things seem very expensive!
 
Well i recently borrowed a 19" and it was awesome, i could watch movies while surfing the web or while video eiditing or just leave it fullscreen on IRC while i played counterstrike on my main monitor

i was planning on having IRC on one and my web browser on the other, but after having 2 monitors im lost without the space... specially during video editing!

Plus a bigger screen, maybe a 24 i dont thing would look good next to mine - ive thought about another 226bw, but i really like the idea of 3 so i have a main monitor right in the middle
 
i'm having no trouble finding monitors... i'm just really unsure of what size i should go for

i love the idea of having 3x1680x1050, but a good 20.1" with that res might be weird next to my 22", or 2 lower end 22" with that res that maybe wouldnt look as good...

really confused, i need opinions!!
