Use Monitors - Computer Setup

Are your monitors really held up with cardboard boxes and duct tape? That would scare me....

Yeah but it's very stable. There's also black tape along the bezels that holds them together.

Nice. just finished my current setup (tri montirs ftw! 17 inch, 21 inch, 17 inch) and all ive gotta say: its a bitch to get different monitors properly sized...(and god damn it i have to fix my wires again..)

Sexy, when I build my next pc for an alt to my FPS rig I want to do a similar monitor setup. I can't do the surround or portrait for FPS games like CS, but for everything else it looks badass. :)

I actually played a bit of CS on this today!

Hey, that wallpaper looks vaguely familiar! ;)

Awesome setup! I was also inspired by Vega like you were. (Now I just need two more of these monitors, oh and another GPU to power them..)

Him and I were in contact on.. either overclockers or Xtreme Systems. I have since disassembled the setup since I play a lot of FPS and Eyefinity has some input lag that I couldn't work around. It was awesome for web dev, though.

I had that keyboard for a while. If I were you i would really consider replacing it with something mechanical.

Yes, please op. upgrade to a mech asap!

I don't feel like spending any more money right now, already spent enough..

Is it common that the box on the back on the monitor is just fastened with a bit of duct tape, or is Asus just very cheap?

I think it's common. The plastic casing also helps keep it together so there isn't anything to worry about

Sure, come pick it up at Moonstreet 12, Mars, by 3PM tomorrow!

Do you prefer triple portrait or triple landscape? Awesome setup by the way.

I'm not sure yet, I went portrait today so I haven't been able to use it enough to know. Thanks!

I'm not op, but I have a similar setup, and I like portrait a lot more than landscape for eyefinity. It feels like the monitors full a lot more of your line of sight.

I really like triple portrait setups, i`ll probably rearrange my own setup to one as soon as i can afford my third U2412M....OCD requires three matching monitors

See you have a 770, seriously considering the monitor setup but I'm wondering does the 770 handle the huge res okay?

Yep, I play a lot of BF3 and on medium settings it's usually 60+ fps.

Good to hear. Thanks! Another quick question, how hard is it to debezel the monitors?

Debezeling was easy, but you wont have any vesa mounts if you debezel. If you want to use monitors in portait mode get an IPS panel, mine look weird if you look at them just a little bit from the side.

Fellow 770 owner here!

As someone who's always used a single monitor do you get used to to split bars with multiple monitors? It would drive me crazy.

I don't mind the bezels at all, but I have heard that some people find them annoying.

What resolution are the monitors?

Really sick. I'm doing this to my 3 monitors when i get home. what desktop environment is that? I really like it

Jag ser att du är svensk ;D Du har ju 6:an på och allt.

This is the only way I would go multi-monitor. Looks fun.

Fan va härligt med svenskar på coolcomputersetups!!
