Any suggestions for a monitor 22" Full HD???
I have LG 22EN33S-B and all my ps projects looks like shit to other displays. So now i know why my entries colors and saturation looks fine only to me. I tweek the settings with no luck but then i read that this over-saturated monitor is crap for photoshop or photos.

Have you tried calibrating your monitors with a tool like ColorMunki?

Thanks for the response man
No i don't have a device for color calibrating and i don't want to buy one at the moment. I can handle to fix the color problem. The real problem is hardwareish. The monitor is extreme over-saturated with lame contrast tuning. At saturation to zero the black is grey(five tones brighter than my LED tv's black 60% saturated). When i turn the saturation to max then the white is like burning eyes headlight!!!

You might try f.lux. It's a pretty good monitor dimmer app which is free. See if that works, or makes things worse for you. Or plan "B" look for someone in your area who may want a brighter monitor, and arrange a trade.

F.lux download page http://justgetflux.com

ok thanks i tried f.lux and makes my monitor watch things nice, but not proper. for example i made this face replacement and in my monitor looks smooth colored perfect and natural. Of course in your monitor should look awfull(like a b&w photo on a colored one or like burned face)
