Help with Triple Monitor Setup

[Baasha]

Guys,

So I've decided to get a triple monitor setup for my system mainly for multi-tasking and surround gaming.

I currently have a Dell U3011 as my main display along with a Samsung T260 but I'll be selling the Samsung to get two more Dell monitors to have a near-'perfect' display setup.

What I mean is I'm ambivalent about the choice of monitors. I'm not sure I want to spend $3000 on two more Dell U3011 but I'm leaning towards getting either two U2711s or two U2410s. Both are IPS panels like the U3011 and so will be very high quality.

What do you guys recommend for a 3-monitor setup with a 30" monitor being the main display? Do you have experience with either of those monitors (U2711 or U2410)? What are your thoughts on them?

Also, it would be ideal to get 2 additional U3011 but I think that'd be a real waste since the viewing angle would be really big and it would come in handy mainly for gaming. The 2 smaller monitors on the side should suffice and function well IMO.

wtf so nobody here has a triple monitor setup? Come on! Can someone at least give me some suggestions?

Go with three 30's. I went with three 23's due to desk space. Its nice to have the same pixel pitch and the same resolution.

Other than going with 3 monitors of the same resolution, im not really sure what you're asking. I had a triple monitor setup a few years ago, 24" in the middle, 19" on either side.

Outside of doing 3 identical size monitors for resolution purposes, go with whatever you want. there isn't a "Better" or "worse"
