Hey guys,

I have 2 zr24w monitors and really want a third but my desk space is beginning to take a big hit. I remember a long time back (I have been lurking on these forums for a long time) I was reading the zr24w thread and someone mentioned getting a 20" monitor and turning it sideways for a flush pixel transition between the screens. I have lost that post, and I have also discovered that I may have read that post wrong.

In any event I have been searching for a good monitor to stick in between my two beasts, while searching ebay I found this.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEC-MultiSync-LCD2090UXI-20-LCD-Monitor-Black-/400357207415?pt=Computer_Monitors&hash=item5d37262d77

Sure, its old. The stand is outdated, but Ive wanted to get desk mounts anyway. I guess what Im asking for is words of encouragement or discouragement. I would like to hear some better alternatives also.

Im trying to keep the same vertical pixel count(at 1200) and it seems the resolution 1600x1200 is of a dying breed. Newegg doesnt have any new monitors in this resolution for under 800 dollars.

I am not sure if it's the ideal solution for what you want, but that's a good price for a 2090 in new condition. If it wasn't for eBay fees, you probably could sell it again for a profit even.
But if you plan to turn it sideways, won't the vertical resolutions mismatch? x1200p vs 1600p? I thought the 20"ers worked best with 30" screens as side panels?


Downside to listing it here is someone else may grab it up by the time you decide.

It's fine I'm not very serious right now, I'm just trying to weigh my options.

If I was trying to setup a rig for a 3840+x1200, tri-monitor street racing experience, what would people suggest for the center monitor? Should I just buy another 24w?
 
If you are going Eyefinity/nVSurround then get a third 24w - they don't like mixing portrait and landscape. If not, look up a Dell 2007FP/2001FP, they are the same resolution and a *LOT* cheaper (in the $20-$50 range).
