Knowing that you are into photography as well, I'd suggest you to skip the 22in line. All of them come with TN panels suited for gaming, not for good color reproduction.

Look for good ones in 20in or 24in.. Dell ultrasharp series are the one to look out for. I have the Dell 2408 monitor and so far happy with it. No speakers/webcam, but has all the ports you could need (display port too) and card reader (with 2 usb ports to use as hub).

Costs 56K. I always wanted that one, but it will create a big crater in my pocket, especially for a married man like me. But to be frank that is the monitor to have.

Quite high priced here.. luckily got it for way lesser than that (40% price :P ) . Look for other Ultrasharp series (20inch).

There is a ncie reference/guide for you to decide the model:

@winzee,
Both of those GPU's will set u back by 27-28Ks . IMO, go with a HD4850 or Nvidia 9800GTX.

@need4torque,
for that config, u can try these games:
1. UT-2003
2. Medal of Honour (Old Titles)
3. Stalker: SOC
4. GRID
5. UT-III
6. CS: Source
7. Half Life: Orange Box
8. FEAR
9. Far Cry
10. Doom 3 and ROE.
Believe me, there are tons of titles. However, i would really recommend you to upgrade your system ASAP!

I have been using NVIDIA all my life, so I would obviously suggest you an NVIDIA card.

@gold heart: Are you sure the latest card from NVIDIA (GTX 280) costs just 28k? My guess: it would be more in the range of 33-38k or thereabouts..

@anvancy.. My fifa 09 isnt stopping me from playing in career mode. The screens and the game play is simply beautiful. I have a feeling of playing a PS3 game.

New controls with mouse as well... for shooting and lobbing ball from opponents...
