I am looking for a new monitor for a custom PC build. I am planning on eventually using a dual monitor setup in the future, but will start off with one. My biggest worry would be that the bezel in the middle might be distracting and ruin the display. What is a good, cheap 23-24 inch monitor I could get that will have a slim bezel.

Thank you

EDIT:

would it make more sense to go with a three monitor setup with 19 inch monitors?

EDIT:

This will not just be for gaming it will also be for multi-tasking and school work.

Gaming with two monitors only isn't recommended. Even with the slimmest bezel it is still really noticeable, assuming you mean having one image of the game on each monitor.

This isn't just for gaming too I also was going to use it as an everyday PC and for school work so then I could multitask with the dual monitors.

All we know is what you put in your post, I wasn't saying two monitors is bad. Just bad for gaming if you put the image on both screens, which it seems like you were going to do by your op.

Sorry I will try to make it more clear next time.

Dell U2414H from Newegg with code "EMCPCPW94", it is only $240. And 3 monitors is soooo much better that 2, and you can't compare 3 monitors to 1.

I trip to make the fall shorter
