    I'd prefer you get a larger 32" monitor, and at that size a slight curve is beneficial.  Here's one that looks attractive:

This model happens to be on sale now, but of course look for reviews first for caveats.  Don't shy away from a bigger monitor if you haven't used one before, it’s the one part that makes the largest and most lasting impression in an upgrade.
 

Depending on prices two monitors might be cheaper while providing more actual screen space.  But that depends a lot on how many windows/programs you commonly have running at one time.  I have a pair of 27" monitors and at times will have more than half-a-dozen various windows open that I am actively doing something on.
