So my monitor has just been dispatched (http://www.amazon.co.uk/LG-D2342P-PN-AEK-Backlit-Screen-Monitor/dp/B005FPUNWU) I immediately saw AS:Brotherhood, 3d and LED for £85 off and jumped on it. It was £154 ($243)
Issue is I'm having second thoughts, Is this monitor worth the money? Should I get smaller monitors and dual monitor, I was planning to anyway but I only like dual monitors if the monitors are exactly the same, some OCD thing I guess and I will rarely ever use the 3D option but it just seemed like a bargain since it was LED.

Basically what I am asking is if this monitor is worth the buck and If not what should I be getting, I know next to nothing about monitors but would love dual monitors In my first build and am only using them for gaming.
 
Dual monitors for gaming is not the best. One large monitor or 3 monitors is what you want. A 23" monitor is plenty big though. Anything larger and your vision will not be able to take in the whole picture at once without moving your eyes side to side a lot. At normal desk sitting position that is.

I have had issues with LG monitors at work, but that seems to be confined to the particular model that was bought, although it was a high-end model, and all the ones we bought had image issues.
