By Dallar on 03/08/2009
Hey guys,
Some of you know that I had asked some questions regarding my future screens. Today I went to the store to buy them and they are NICE!


Now I just need to attach them to the wall for UBER sexy looks

It'll be a split screen, so that your normal full screen shows over 2 screens, so for example full screen forums one screen full screen RS HD the other.

owow that's epic!
Controlled by the same mouse? Impossible!
How do you switch your mouse to the next screen

It's basically one output port but over two screens so yes the same mouse over both.

Are those speakers Logitech X-540's? If so I have the same set on their way to my house.

How do they sound?
Anyways, awesome set-up. I love large screens, and would love another monitor to do dual display with. I would probably need a better computer though.

Mine are the X-530

I got them for my 18'th birthday. They've delivered awesome quality so far. Normally my speakers only last for one year or so, but I've been using these for 2 years approximately without any problems. They sound awesome and the sub performs very well. Logitech speakers are definately the best quality for computer setups. I ensure you've bought the right product

This means you can now play runescape and watch porn at the same time.
Because, remember, you only need one hand to play runescape.

why would you need 2 screens? o.O

Wow, that is sweet

You must have one hell of a graphics card
I envy those who are technologically more advanced than my failure of a desktop.

Actually, most any decent graphics card made in the last 7 or so years supports dual monitors. Even my old IBM T41 laptop has a VGA port for a second screen, and that has a mobile Radeon 7000 series graphics chip!
Multiple screens is nothing new; a good machine can support four or more - my dad's P4 was setup for 4 screens, using a second graphics card.
A good test for the quality of a graphics card is whether you can stretch Runescape HD(4x aa, max settings) across both screens, and have it run at a decent frame rate. My GTX 260 was able to do it, but only barely.

Such a nice setup.. shame you waste it on something like Runescape....
By Mickey on 04/08/2009
I wish I had the money to do that
By David on 04/08/2009
I have the same setup basically.
26" Smasung TV as my main monitor and then I just use my laptop screen as my second monitor. No surround sound though.
Nice set of screens though.
Why is it all shifted toward the right? Or is that just the angle of the picture?

Nice big screen.
Dont you need a bigger table now ?

Well, since the screens haven't been mounted to the wall they sure take up alot of space. My bro is taking me to some place today where wallmounts can be bought. It'll free up alot of space seeing that the screeen to my right takes away like 40 cm of the table from the screen to the wall, lol..
I do use it for more than Runescape. Now when I have it it's something I can't live without. Already after 10 hours of usage I can't see how I managed to do all this only in one screen

By Kecooler on 04/08/2009
Meh to be fair, one screen is enough. Two is convenient. Four is excessive.
By Sithofwookie on 04/08/2009
What kind of screen are those? How much are they?
By Samurai-JM on 04/08/2009
I've had my laptop with a separate screen for over a year now, you guys all knew that so whats so surprising?
By Back to Own on 04/08/2009
Fuck thats epic
By Stokenut on 04/08/2009
I find it amazing that so many people can't grasp how dual monitors work.
Nice setup, wish I had the money to build my dream computer.
