"light gamer" "3 monitors".... I suppose you gave the same reaction* as my wife did this morning when I suggested that we should put about half the mugs in the cupboard into storage so that cupboard isn't chock-full of mugs.
"I'm a light coffee drinker, that's why I need 26 mugs in the cupboard!"
* - the sort of reaction that strongly suggests that she's not going to talk to me unless she absolutely has to for at least half an hour.
when she break him up over a computer desk, than yes:biggrin:shouldn't this be in Ln'R?![]()
The office work, programming, gaming, internet, probably everything apart from movies is better done on more than 1 screen.Could someone explain to me what in the heck are three monitors good for? Except for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
Light gamer and three monitors? I am sorry, this is the most ridiculous thing I have read in years, computers-related.
I am still genuinely curious what in the heck you need such setup for.
That's what I was thinking on top of everything else.on a serious note, I don't know how you guys even game on multiple monitors.. i cant stand bezel seperation ugh..
Hardly... Except for the programming maybe. I found it handy to have main desktop with all the regular program I used on one screen, and mails/remote desktop on another in my former job, but it was just that: handy. Dual monitors, allright? Now considering I was using such setup for WORK, I fail to see how a college boy (no offence) would need something beyond that.The office work, programming, gaming, internet, probably everything apart from movies is better done on more than 1 screen.
You are right it's not mandatory, but it is proved efficient when working with alot of static data. The college guys don't need it, they want it, most youngsters who own multi-monitor setups are using them for eyefinity gaming, rather than working. Although you are also right here, it's not needed, modern gaming is way too much about owning the gaming hardware rather than playing the game itself and topping the score boards regardless of what hardware you have.That's what I was thinking on top of everything else.

There's no way in hell you would need or could even put to use three monitors for porn and light gaming.
Can't believe I'm siding with the GF here, but three 21" monitors side by side sounds awful.
Oh yes the modern e-penis factormodern gaming is way too much about owning the gaming hardware rather than playing the game itself and topping the score boards regardless of what hardware you have.
I'd actually be tempted by those ultrawide monitors for work purposes. I use the crap out of Windows 7's Snap feature, and having a debugger on one half of the screen and program being debugged on the other would work pretty well.
I am about to pull the trigger on the LG 21:9 monitor for this reason. Sure, it will be nice in gaming as well, but this will be very nice. Not bezel to annoy me while having two development windows open. I am just trying to get actual clarification if the models available in the US are the 1.25 firmware.
Dell has a 21:9 as well, but both of them are just so stinking expensive. It is almost cheaper to get 3 21s and a 3 monitor stand. But, bezel.

There are guides to De-Bezel, this guy does it quite well:

This is why I'm glad I'm single. Nobody is going to tell me to change anything.
Those ultra wide monitors look interesting though... Linux only supports 2 monitors and I've been struggling with crappy work around to get 3 working, but 2 of these ultra wides would be nice... one on top of each other.
