Yey, new monitors! Now where is the rest of my new PC?

Post by Nielk1 »

Still waiting on the tower but I managed to hook the new screens up to this archaic thing. Take a look, they are HUGE. I went from a CRT to this, the one on the right is wider and more than twice as tall as the CRT screen was, and that's in portrait!

Darn things are running at 1920 by 1200 even on the crap PC.

Sorry for how bad the photo is though, not sure why it came out so bad, but it gives dimension well. They look a bit smaller in photograph but you can tell from the way the forum fit on the 2nd screen how huge they are.

As a side note, that trapper keeper up on the shelf is my Steam receipts, on... paper. I still trust that more.

What model are they? Mine has massive bevels, not good for multiple monitors at all.

Once you move to two monitors, I would strongly suggest software that enhances the use of two like Ultra monitor. or something similar. I use it, but there maybe other programs just as nice or better. I'd be curious if someone knows of others.
