That is all. :D

:camera:

BTW, the two 15" monitors are hooked up to a GeForce FX 5200 PCI and the 17" LCD is connected to a GeForce FX 5600 Ultra AGP.

Nice.

Edit - BTW, I suggest you upload that picture to one of our many free pichosting sites, unless you like getting your home connection hammered.

Better 2D and integration-wise, but even the FX5200 PCI could probably stomp on the poor Parhelia in the 3D world performance-wise. ;)

I still want a Parhelia though.

I was going to get a Parhelia, but it's Linux support is even worse than an ATI card. Nvidia was and is the only option.

And no, I can't play games across screens. I tried it once with 2 screens and didn't like it.

Apparantly Matrox makes a 256MB Parhelia. $600 though. I still wonder how it performs. And whether you could overclock it. ;)

Until someone makes it so you can run UT2k3 on a triple monitor setup like you have there its not nearly as cool as it could be. :/

I'd rather have a single good monitor than an average LCD and two POS 15" CRTs from 1994.

How about a single good monitor and one 10.5" LCD?

i prefer quad monitors all hooked upto different systems :)

from left to right - 15inch lcd, 21inch Trinitron, 19inch trinitron, 17inch trinitron.

lcd is off because the hd died so I decided to mod the case while waiting for the replacement. There is two computers hooked up to the 21inch trinitron.

Ugh screw that! Too many mice/keyboards....unless you've got a quad KVM, which doesn't appear to be the case.

on a side note: what do you use your 4 computers for?
