This is probably my third thread in this month. Hope this isn't too much.

Anyways, i have 200 euros to spare, and I need a new monitor. I do alot of post-processing photos, so the more close the monitor can get to the global standards of calibration without a calibrator ( I also have a calibrator) the better. It needs to have good viewing angles, and preferrably atleast 22". Resolution of 1680x1050 seems best, as if I go higher I probably won't bee able to play the games I play with maxed out settings.

I can spend more than 200 euros if there's a monitor that really stands out of the crowd by it's features, but in no situation whatsoever more than 300 euros.

So.

-Good viewing angles
-22"+
-resoltion of 1680x1050 would be nice, I can go for higher though. The most GPU / cpu hungry game I play at the moment is fallout 3. I have intel core i5 and ATI radeon HD 5770.
-Good possiblities of RGB managment, so that I can pre-calibrate it to as close as possible without an calibrator, so calibrator needs to do just the fine tuning.
-Preferrably black, :P

I'm pretty sure that's enough information?
