i myself have a very similar model to the first one the 22" m8 and there only one little tiny problem with it, the 22" has an aspect ratio of 16:10 and the 23" has one of 16:9 now my moni has the 16:10 and although thats perfectly fine and all if i wanna go the full HD route which i do lol it means the screen is a little squished not much but enough to tell and u have t adjust the dimensions manualy via nvidia control panel this is because 1080p is naturally a 16:9 aspect ratio

so basically the natural ratio for the 22" is 1650x1050 which is what i have , and the 23" is 1920x1080p even tho the 22" can use 1080p it just looks very slightly off lol

sorry for dragging it out but if i would have known this before buying my moni i would defo go 23" cos it does make a difference all games in 1080p look totaly different then basic moni res's

anyways good luck on ur decision

y not go all out and go 30" -32" :P

Look at the resolution bud you need a better one than 1650 x 1080 to utilize your cards out put . My Yuraku 22.4 inch is great but its only 1680X1050. If thats good enough you can get many now for around £100-£150 for a good one. Look at Scan  etc for deal of the day :)
