    Update:

    Got a second monitor now. A NEC LCD1970NXp. I'm running it in portrait mainly for a separate Photoshop tools screen, but is useful for loads of other stuff too. Plus.. it's just cool.


    The monitor was silver, which is just wrong for my set up, so I removed the front bezel and sprayed it with black vinyl dye. I used loads of very thin coats for a very matt, crackle type finish.

    I got a decent VESA mounting arm from Maplin.

    Useful for googling information while playing MMORPGs...

    Loads of screen space for productivity too...

    So much win Pookeyhead. That's a really nice setup. Really REALLY nice.

    I'm considering moving the rig and having a third on the other side now. LOL.

    It never ends!

    I have same problem with my 22" + 17" setup :) (yea, quite lame when comparing to your setup)

    And an Eizo display! Both good and bad. Good, they are propably the best displays in the world (IMO). Bad, cause I don't own any :grr: ;)

    Edit: Is that D-Link router? Are they any good?

    LOL. I have a Horde character too :p


    Yeah, it rocks. It's the DIR-655. The only annoying thing is it makes constant ARP broadcasts to all LAN machines, so anything on the network will not be able to use S3 sleep... the router keeps waking it up. Apart from that it's the best router I've ever used. Rock solid.

    What's your primary monitor? Looks really nice... is it fast enough for gaming?

    Fix'd ;)

    Lol, just kidding pook :thumb: That's an extremely nice setup indeed. What model is your Lian Li chassis there? Looks very nice and very familiar, but i can't quite make it out in those pics :)

    It's a Lian Li PC-A6010. Sadly, it's discontinued now. :(

    I knew I recognized it... I built a couple of gaming rigs with those when they first came out. Such a beautiful and well designed case :)

    Some new screens. Running out of desk space, gotta make some stands for the speakers as now they are left behind the screens and that's not gonna cut it. This is just a quick layout as I just got the second 24" from RMA the same day I left.

    In case someone cares: 19" 1280x1024, cheap 24" 1080p LG for benchmarking needs and a proper 1200p LG L245WP for real use. Gonna switch the 1200p in the middle, have it as the main screen, and (hopefully) have the 19" and the 24" run from a separate GFX card.

    Can you take a pic of how you've got the mount set up? I quite like the idea.

    I certainly can.

    I didn't need the maximum reach it offers, but bought it anyway in case I do in the future.

    I have it sort of doubled back on itself.

    It also comes with a plastic cover for the arms for cable management, but I didn't use it.. no point... it's all out of sight anyway.

    Good news is, I'm still stuck in the wrong city I have plenty of time to think about the choices :D The best idea so far would be to just switch the setup to another wall and get a longer (maybe 3 m) desktop. The feet are very sturdy so I could just get a large piece of wood, varnish it and have a mahoosive desk. Beside the screens and speakers I also need desk estate for test bench(es)... Having the expensive kit hang half-way over the edge of the desk kinda sucks, and even more so as I have a retarded cat running around, just looking for stuff to break.
