MissingNo1 School of Applied Knowledge Caldari State 0	Posted - 2011.10.09 23:15:00 - [4] - Quote Personally I would go for the 4 x 22" setup, 4 HUGE screens like the other choices will f*** your eyes up (unless you're sat on a sofa using wireless mouse and KB at 2m+). I like to be close to my screen and sat at a desk so I feel like I have full control. But that's just me. Plus you get a nicer picture out of 22" vs 32"+ with the same resolution ranges. Ninja edit: Also, make sure you have enough horses inside your computer to run 4 screens, you do realise that GFX memory is divided up per screen and a sli/CF setups don't scale greatly with more than a dual monitor setup.

Yes was thinking of the monitors but i may keep the 40" TV as a main, my pc will be ok as i will be using CPU - I7-2600 Quad Core Memory - 16Gb DDR3 Dual -DDR 3 1333Mhz Gfx Card - 4Gb AMD Radeon HD 6990 (will double it up at a later date) HD - Intel 320 series SSD

Lord Ryan Derailleurs 27	Posted - 2011.10.10 01:59:00 - [11] - Quote tried a 33" for a couple minutes. than went back to the store and bought a 22". like someone said to big to set on your desk. use a 24" Mac now think gthat's about perfect -á I want to fly a badass Mon Calamari stlye-ácruiser painted to match my Tron clothes.
Thrawn Nostur Omeyocan Legion Talocan United 0	Posted - 2011.10.10 06:25:00 - [12] - Quote I personally use 2x22" monitors...and if I ever did do a quad setup, I wouldn't go bigger than that. Your eyes need to travel too far and it would get tiring fast. I would set them up 2 side by side with the other 2 above them tilted slightly down. As it is, I already move both overviews to the center (one on the right, one on the left) so I don't have to look so far to see the one on the right monitor.
El Arto Lawlz Brawlz 13	Posted - 2011.10.10 08:01:00 - [13] - Quote Stack 4 22"s with a monitor stand instead of whipping your neck around. Also I would probably double up on the GPUs there. I run 2 23" samsung led-lcds on a 550ti. (i7 2600) Monitor Stands Eventually I'll get a triple 3d setup hehe

I'm using 3x24" monitors (1920x1200) in landscape on 1 computer, and 1x24" TV (FHD) above them (which will soon change to a 32 FHD TV for tv/second computer). I also have another 21.5" monitor on the side for browsing. Huge monitors is going to be a pain, and very much not recommended for a computer. If you insist in one big and 3 small for a computer, get a 27" dell with 2560x1440 and 3 smaller ones (22 will be enough). Using TVs for a computer is kinda meh...

Quad is a bit excessive. I use a 30" central and a 22" at either side and it works well - your focus is always going to be on one in particular, might as well have something that pwns on other games too. As others have said though, 2x2 is a novelty and not really suited to long term use.

ed jeni SKULLDOGS RED.OverLord 2	Posted - 2011.10.10 11:04:00 - [17] - Quote Personally I use 3x32" driven from a triple head 2go. This let's me keep eve fully maximised across all 3 with chat windows/local drones on left monitor. Right monitor for overviews and central monitor for my view out. Sometimes I have web browser on 1 monitor and eve on the other 2. Tv's are getting better these days but I wouldn't want to be sitting too close to one for a long time. Only downside is that at the huge resolutions i run CQ switched on makes my triple sli setup melt in protest, although maybe ccp will get this sorted when someone who can actually write the code signs up.. MW COD and CS.GO look awesome in huge res and makes the gaming experience far more immersive. Contact me in game if u need more info.
