I was thinking of getting the dell 2407WFP 24" widescreen but should I opt for a smaller cheaper monitor like a 20.1" or 22" and another 17" monitor in dual configuration?
My current video card is BFG 7800 gt
Thanks

first off.....what are you going to be using it/them for?
if going dual monitors, try and get a matched pair, its better for your eyes n stuff.. you can probably get a pair of niceish 19" monitors.. depends what you use the pc for. if mostly gaming and movies, a single monitor.. if mostly work/net browsing, dual has a definate advantage
ive got a dell 24" on the media pc, sitting next to 3 CRT's in triple-screen-mode at my main pc. the triples are definitely better for general work, splitting windows and multitasking, however, the 24 is top class for games and movies
Unless you're working with high res photos or something similar, get 2 20.1's. You'll love them.
I would get either:
-1 Big + 1 Small
-2 x Medium
-1 enormous
Once you have used dual monitor - It takes some time to revert back to one.
They are exceedingly handy - I recommend most people to get one.
Unless you just browse the web/play games/watch movies.
If you do anything else with your PC (especially photoshop) then dual-monitor is great for time saving.
Have you had numerous windows open, and flicking between them - Continally clicking the taskbar to find them?
Dual-Monitor will help a lot. :)
You already have a 17"?
If so - I'd go for the biggest you can afford. Use the 17" as a secondary.
OK - Having them both at the same resolution is the ideal situation... But the bigger monitor will be beter for games/video so worthwhile over 2 x 17".
dual is so last year, get triple :D
pffft. this was my room 4 years ago..
