Hi All,
Ive had a DELL dell wfp3008 since 2008, and I hate having old stuff. I would like an upgrade, something nice new and shiny. This monitor is 30" and has 2560x1600 which is amazing for gaming

Is there anything around which is bigger in size with same resolution?
I would settle for a 30" monitor which is better than this currently

or wait for tte first 4k monitors, im not sure when they will be out, but im sure sombody will say

Or get 3x 27" ips monitors, this is what i did after 2 different 30" monitors.

I'm not sure if I would be too keen on having 3 monitors lined up, the bars on the outside of the monitors would do my head in. does it not get annoying?

Hi, no it never does, you would think it would but you never notice them in games.

I've seen youtube videos, and it's annoying me by watching the videos, so in person I'd be tearing my hair out. Big bezel tearing up the screen and images, would look weird for me. I guess I will have to wait for 4k monitors

Here is one i did without the bezel :0 http://youtu.be/DCZGG-mbyrk

okay new plan, keep 30" for browsing, gaming as I sit close

Planning on getting a led tv to hook up to pc aswell for movies only, sit 10 feet away, good idea? if so, any recommendations? 60" + if possible

I'm not sure with led TV's but from what TV's I've had Samsung gave the best picture via a Pc, I HAVE HAD 2X 52" Samsung a Sony then a Panasonic all been top spec at the time and Samsung was like a big monitor but too big when up close, now I use a Projector from my bed a Epson TW-6000 much better but you need a dark room to get the full effect.

I'm looking after a mates flat this weekend and he has a new 55" Samsung he got last yr, so I will give it a go via my laptop and see how good it is, I'm very fussy so I will pick out everything lol
