Gaming setup: Triple 24' monitors vs 34 inch curved

[PremiumG]

Which do you guys think is better? It seems like for the price of a 34 or 35 inch curved monitor, you can get 3 24 inch monitors.

I already have two old Dell 24 inch monitors and was thinking about upgrading. For those of you that have tried both setups, which do you prefer? Which gives a more immersive experience?

Tough call... there's pros and cons for each.

I voted for the single amazing monitor because for wide movies and newer games it'll be mind-blowingly awesome (and no annoying black monitor borders!)
Some older games may require tweaking to have a supported res stuck in the middle of blackness... but I can live with that easier than black gaps between the same continuous content.

I would generally prefer a single display over breaks in the screen.

same here. i'm running a triple monitor setup right now. i actually mostly play 1920x1080 windowed vs 5760x1080. Partly cause my video card would die, the bezels are annoying, and also because the edges of the outer monitors exceed my FoV, so it's not particularly useful.

i have a triple monitor setup from 2008 (i had 4 monitors with 2 gpu first).

i hated it for gaming and i don t use this triple monitor setup (it s on my table on the other house)
