Hi, I hope this is the right thread.

I'm going to buy a new monitor. Any recommendation for good 21 inches LCD / LED monitor for PC?
My PC is Windows XP if that matters.
If you can post with the price range, I'll be more grateful by the way.

Also, I never do dual monitors, is it possible with 21 inches monitor to be dual-ed with an 14 inches monitor?
FYI, My VGA card is Nvidia GeForce 460GTX. It has two slots of monitor output.

Thanks in advance! :)

The link ~PR-Imagery gave you is good.

Also, to answer your question: Yes, you can dual monitors that are two different sizes. In the nvidia control panel you can "move" the monitors around to how they are on your desk. That way the edges will actually line up and your cursor will make sense.

by the way, what will happened if I use those two different sized dual monitors for gaming? Will it be strange or is it better to disable one off?

It depends on the game. The second screen will either be black or will show your desktop. So, the game just runs full screen on whichever monitor you've designated as your primary monitor. The mouse is trapped to that monitor (except on some older games) and you would alt-tab to jump back to your full desktop.

Moral of the story is that it runs well :p
