Hey folks,
At some point I want to upgrade my graphics card, probably to a 5870 and run 3 24" monitors in eyefinity.
At the moment I have a 24" and a 22", I'll most likely buy 2 more 24" monitors and sell my 22", then upgrade my gfx card from my nvidia 250gts.
I'm pretty familiar with how to setup eyefinity stuff and I know I'll need an active displayport adapter if I don't get at least 1 displayport ready monitor.
The problem is most of the 24 inch displayport monitors are expensive, very expensive.
Some I'm wondering if I should just cut my losses and buy 2 non displayport ones and get an adapter.
Also, my current 24" is 1900x1200 and almost ALL of the 24" monitors I see (especially the displayport ones) seem to be 1900x1080.
So what I really need is 2, 24" 1900x1200 monitors.
So advice would be great, I'm wondering really if I should hold out for at least one displayport one, and which one? or just drop it on 2 decent 24" samsungs.
Was thinking of this - No competitor links!
My current 24" is a LG W2452TX, which is pretty decent, I'd just get 2 more of these but the stand leaves a lot to be desired, which is why i'm thinking of the samsung.
Or should I do something else, wait for a decent 1900x1200 24" displayport ready monitor to show up that isn't way expensive?
