WoW at 1920x1200 running with all settings maxed. It runs just as good as when i was running it at 12x10 reso. I do have a 7800gtx though. This is worth the money. Buy the 2405.
 
Damm theres some nice LCD setups here!!! those dell 24's are sexy in multi format.


mines a bit of a ride soz guys..... i call it desktop evolution, its an on-going mod in itself .

I work and own my own biz wich now includes multimon setups.

what the...
that is SICK defyant. that must be one successful business you have there.

and how did you get that LCD into your case? Is it just displaying system stats all day?
 
that's a lot of lcds, i love those apple lcd. What is it that you do if you don't mind me asking
 
that's freakin insane Defyant!

you're the one to beat now :p thats the best "lcd" set up i seen.

are the two other apple monitors 23? or 20?

also the case is the shit, what are the specs on that monster?


also what the hell did you do with all the old monitors if you kept buying new ones? ebay?
 
Defyant - damn... just damn. nice...

Wondermoose - I dig your matrix theme! I plan on making one with like 4 or 5 lcds all arm mounted and such, like on one of the matrix ships... running the matrix SS and make the desk area clean, but with a post apocolyptic feel... you know, that "civilization as we know it got wiped out and we rebuilt as best we could with spare parts and a welding torch" look. ...er, something like that.. ;)
 
Vat - I have been looking into the deskmount options. The ones I like are pretty expensive though :). I am a 19 year old college student, so just trying to get by lol.

Revenant - Thanks for the compliment, I was really pleased with that particular screensaver...

It looks a lot like the one on the left... but perhaps it appears smaller because of the angle?

Anyways... it looks like a 23" with two 20"'s on either side to me... that 30" is freaking big man... it would dwarf the case next to it. :)
 
When I get rich, I want to do a 6 DELL 24" monitor set up. In the mean time, this is what I am running now:

main_workstation-2005.jpg
 
i still cant get over how incredibly P.I.M.P. that is... :eek:

can we get some more details on that setup please ;) :D
 
Holy Gods, these are some excellent looking setups.

Depending on how many scholarships I get this year, I'll be buying two more 2005FPWs, then running 3x2005FPW + 2x172x + 2x15" Syncmasters . . . but that's still up in the air.

A monitor obsession is healthy :). Excellent setups, excellent setups.

I have a sneaking suspicion that you would change your opinion if someone set up 359,804 and a half (roughly) Dell monitors. That would be . . . amazing. You could (almost) run at an 800x600 resolution, using each monitor as a pixel.

Man . . .

I will now close my eyes and think about this instead of the work in front of me :).
 
can only imagine his energy bills.

luckily LCD's use a lot less than CRTs, not to mention the radiation they put out
 
mine pales in comparison to some of these, but here it is anyhow:
newrig.jpg


currently a single old apple 23" cinema display, which is great for composing but sucks for games (can someone say response rate?) Probably be upgrading to a dual monitor setup within the next few weeks. Probably end up getting 2 of the new apple 23" unless I can find something better that will still fit.
 
wondermoose, wow.. hehe i never expected to see someone use my wallpaper!

did you find it on interfacelift.com?
 
Here's my desk while I'm home from school:

screens.jpg


The LCD is nothing impressive... but it was cheap. The 21" monitor still beats any image an LCD can produce, especially for the low-low price of $200 Canadian... I can feel the flames already

And yes.. I painted the monitor black. A really bad, shiny, uneven black. I'd fix the paint job but do you have any idea how much weight and annoyance is involved in dismantling something that big? Lots.
 
SLiCkFX back at ya mate! thats one slick looking setup !!!

i did try to get in on the WP dell buy up but got in too late and missed out.

its great to see this healthy obsession being widly accepted now! a few yrs back all i got was riddacule for having such an outragous setup.

I'm glad i can finally share one of my tru passions with you guys :)

One observation after seeing all of these setups.

You guys crack me up with the $2000 monitors, and some are yet using $10 mice and keyboards. Let alone all the iMacs and G4's & 5's laying off on the side of the desk. Reminds me of an old roommate, had to have his old G4 running 24/7, I kid you not, yet all he ever did on it was run AIM. IF that.

Anyways, I'm still stuck on a 19" CRT. Trying to hold off so I can talk the wife into a Sharp Aquos 45" LCD.

I've got no idea, I got it a few years ago at Officemax or Staples. Sorry. But, I regret getting it ... :(. Not enough drawers (theres a single cabinet and a filing drawer) and well, I guess that's my only real problem with it.
