So I just started this cool project for a LAN computer using this case. My goal is an SLI/CF'd ATX rig that is fully featured but in some sort of SFF, which that case seems to be the only way to go (and its freaking sweet).

Anyways, what I'd like to do is mod one of the side panels with a VESA mount (back plating on the inside of course) and mount a 19-22" monitor on that mount, so that I'd have everything for a LAN good and ready to go in one piece. But I'm having trouble with a monitor choice.

I currently have the Gateway FHD2400, which is an amazing monitor and I have become addicted to its color quality with a gmut of 92%. I'm not looking to sacrifice that on the go. This is what I am looking for:

1) I need one with a 92% color gamut or better. I don't really know where to look for this. Google keeps turning up old wide gamut articles from 2007.

2) I need it to be light. The side panel is 1.0mm thick but its only aluminum which is fairly supple. I need something that is either small screen-wise (19-22) or is thin (I know Samsung has the LED TV's that are thin, what about monitors?). I would love to throw a 23 or 24" on there but I need it to be low on weight.

3) I'd be happy with less, but if I can get 1920x1080(1200) resolution that would be awesome. A resolution smaller would kind of be defeating the CF/SLI idea but I realize I have certain constraints here.

4) Although doubtful we carry something like this, I work at Best Buy and my discount would be nice to put to use.

If someone could answer a few of these questions or point to a place that could, I would be so grateful! Thanks!
