using someone else's good PC

[shiato storm]

...I'm using my bro's PC at the mo...dual screens, tons of ram, stupidly fast cpu
pwns mine a little bit! loving the dual screen action. have so much fun! hexus on the right, and another photographic thing I'm working on on the left...this really kicks A!! love it...the monitors are Eizo's too...which are pretty top spec apparently. oh and hes got tons of mp3's and massoof speakers with a mega bass...
the best bit? I've come back home for the w/e and its in MY room


yay!!

[nichomach]

Yeah, but that means you should probably just give Scan your credit card details now and tell them to charge whatever they want to it...since this is likely to have triggered an overwhelming upgrade impulse

[unreal]

Ha yeah all that is nice but teh evil since you really want that sort of set up now

I had dual screens for about a month, just gave me a super headache (since the dells are brighter than my room) and I kept having unused space. But obviously people can make use of dual screens far better than me, as they rule.

I love dual screens... I love my dual 19" TFTS

I have always liked the idea of dual screens, but doesn the middle beezle, where the two monitors meet look weird?

[ikonia]

yes it does.

thats the reason I dropped my dual screens and went for an ok widescreen.

Dual screen is good for seperate programs at once - but I don't like it for games.

It does (unless you have an ultra thin side bezel, like those on the Dells, looks a tad less weird) but you dont work in the middle, you work on the two seperate screens, kind of like a book - you would write on both pages but not a page right through the middle to the next.

The only thing I need to complete my system is another screen myself... everything else is top notch.

As much as I liked using a dual-monitor setup, I prefer my current solution. Acer 26'' HDTV which I have one computer hooked up to (which I also use for DVDs etc), as well as the rather disappointing normal TV signal

I use my monitors for toolsets in 3ds max

It's fine for games IMO, you just use one monitor for the game

always got a bit hard to aim on call of duty 2 playing on both screens, damn germans always hid in my bezel!

Oh yeah thats good, but I think multi-screen is poor for gaming in general - only time I've been impressed with multi-screen gaming was on a flight sim. That looked pretty good.

Yeap...dual view user here - one nice 22" CRT and a 19" TFT.

Shame I have to switch SLI off to get dual display and then enable SLI for games when required.

[shiato storm]

if something hides in the bezel get one of those 30 inch wide monster screens... that'll learn'em!
