So I recently just bought another Samsung p2350 23" monitor, and I wanted to show off my setup :P
(The only issue is, now that I have two, I want a third so I can use nVidia's new surround feature, so I can have horizontal-span (which has been removed since XP).  But in order to achieve that, I need to buy another monitor, and another video card to handle the three monitors :X, and in that case I might as well use SLI too.  So what cost me $200 to get another monitor, might end up cosing me about $600 more!  I keep telling myself I don't need it, but oh how sweet would that be :D).




(and if you like my background, it is me flying a twotter into SABA at dusk )


- Also if anyone is interested, I found a program called SoftTH which allows you to use 2+ monitors as one... Ideally you want an odd number of monitors, so there is no bezel in the center.  It is a hack, and takes some configuration, but I got it working with FSX, dragon age and fallout3 and it is pretty sweet.  Not the perfect solution as I will probably only use it for messing around in game (and since I only have two monitors, my center is akward with the bezel in the way). -

Sweet!  I'm surrounded by 3 monitors here, unfortunately they all operate at varying resolutions, my main is at 1920x1200 the other one I use is at 1680x1050 and a third auxillary monitor is at 1280x1024

Everytime that I go into any sort of shop locally that sells monitors I keep looking for another monitor that can do 1920x1200 but it seems all they have anymore are something like 1920x1080 and all the unknowledgeble staff likes to tell me that they don't make them in 1920x1200 and that I must have a television for a monitor at that res.  LOL.

Anyway, nice looking setup crowebird.  Oh and I only wish that my desk was that clean and tidy, I've got junk all over the place.

Crowebird, that's a sweet looking set up, although as a resident of Happy Valley (and an employee of the blue and white nation) that damn yellow M kind of makes my stomach hurt...oh, wait, sorry...'maize' m!

BTW...we're very close to making hockey a varsity sport here...within a couple years I think....but more importantly, it's just over two months until wrestling season starts!!!

pat!

Thanks guys,.

@CB: the desk is clean because I recently had family visit from Pennsylvania, otherwise it would have been a cluttered mess, but I'm working hard to keep it clean for now.

@Pat: unfortunately, with my family being from Pennsylvania, they share your allegiance.  Will be pretty cool to see penn state hockey at the division I level though, I look forward to watching the maize and blue destroy some blue and white on the ice :D
