For the $300 this one costs, get it. My wife bought two to run dual monitors but I stole one.
 It has all the specs you want and is a 20" widescreen. Gameplay is very good and looks great. It's an awesome price and it's from Costco.  I have had good luck with Viewsonics and both of these that we bought had no dead pixels. A DVI cable was included as well.Viewsonic 20" Widescreen LCD

Get two 19s. Thats what i currently have. I love the way I arrange the monitor. A light angle, not straight will make it look better and save some space on your desk. Let me take a picture of I while I am writing this to you.

I've read great review about the Viewsonic VX2025wm.
There's a huge thread here that talks about it: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread....2&page=1&pp=20 When I upgrade my computer that's what I'll get (unles the price of the 23" have dropped by then)

The best LCD on the market (IMHO) is an Eizo.
You can find them for cheaper than CDW, but here's a link for reference. http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/def...px?EDC=1007975 After that, there are a slew of also-rans, I would get a Samsung or a Viewsonic probably.

Forget about widescreen LCDs - completely unpractical if you play any games (as you plan to do a little bit).
Check out Dell's 1907FP which has an 8ms response time and 700:1 contrast ratio. Get two of those at a deal and you're good to go. Mind you, you'll need a management application if you want to play a game on one LCD and want to do something else on the other LCD at the same time. You need an app else you'll lose focus and the game will minimize. But if you never game, you can just hook up both LCDs, and you're good to go. A few words of wisdome - if you're gonna do a dual LCD setup, don't hook one up through DVI and the other through RGB, because you will see that the RGB looks uglier.
