Wouldnt you have to buy another gfx to get a 3rd screen?

quadboi · 15 Mar 2006 at 20:00

Yes I believe you would do therefore the Opty

Try savings account because you need neither

Steve i cant see a pic, or your sig :s
id go for the monitor whatever it is... monitors dont really go out of date as quick as CPUs.
do you have the oputputs for a 3rd screen btw ?

I vote for monitor. Ive had a 3 monitor setup(1x2405+2x19" Xeroxs) briefly, and it was great. Shame the second Xerox was a replacement for the other one, and had to be sent back.

dude honestly, save up the cash your spec is ace! if you're not happy with game performance then i'd blame it on the cpu, but it's not holding you back much.

oh and good photoshop, i couldn't even tell which monitor you'd shopped in until i noticed that media player was backwards.
