Multiple Monitor Dilema

Thanks. :)

I have Mathematics and Geography tomorrow, and then I have 5 more exams (I do Statistics, so I finish quite late [21/06/2007]).

Thanks for the advice. I am pretty sure I will get a dual monitor setup now. It seems like a waste of money to get three monitors at the moment, considering that it will cost me so much more than simply two. I can always upgrade in the future, and I believe two monitors will suffice.

Good luck with the exams. :p

All you lucky gcse'ers, where do you get all this money? I can remember being your age and struggling to afford a 15" crt!

Christmas and Birthday really for me. :p

(I don't buy much, and what I do buy tends to be related to computers).

I play a lot of 1st person shooters and can only imagine that running a 2 monitor system must be royal pita! Won't the crosshair be right over the bezels?

I think therefore for shooters a three monitor setup would work better but...

a) you have the viewing angle problem as stated above and

b) how do you run three monitors off a single gfx card?

I am not a gamer. :p

You can get triple/quadruple/etc. head graphics cards, so that one graphics card can have many monitors (although these are generally quite specialised). I just use two graphics cards at the moment.

I am going to go for the two Dell monitors for now, and then upgrade if I want to at a later stage. :p
