I am looking to build a nice setup around a TH2GO. I will be buying 3 19 inch monitors and my question is: What are some suggestions on a great 19 inch monitor?

I am not dead set on 19 inch but my plan was to have the native resolution at 1280x1024, if there is a better option than 3X 19 inch please let me know.

Thanks


as always i recommend NECs multisync 1990FXp.

+ thinnest bezel u can get.
+ very good image quality
+ very good support

- price
- a bit of ghosting sometimes

Thanks for the replies.

Those NEC's are nice but boy are they pricey. I looked at the DELL 1908's and they are closer to the price range i was looking at. I might shoot for some NiB's on Ebay. As for for the computer requirements i think i meet or exceed all if the ones that ithrial listed.

If anyone else has any more to add please keep it coming.

too expensive for most,but man are these awesome :wink:

they are just standard samsung 19" monitors [about 225.00 each at new egg ]
what you are really paying for is the awesome rig that holds the monitors perfectly together.

Money wasn't an issue for me and space and clutter was --sooo I'm loving them 8)

Well with google product search you can find them for less, but not much less. But those online stores seemed a little sketchy to me, and I ended up just getting it direct from Matrox.

I got mine on Ebay for $245. Amazon.com has them and so does some other tech stores...I would just google TripleHead2Go and click on the shopping tab and go to town...

Well i finally got my 3 Dell monitors and i received my TH2go. I have everything working and it is awesome. The only thing that i have yet to solve is color sync between monitors....it is close but i can still tell. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to get all 3 color sync'ed? As i said in a previous post they are all Dell 1908FP's but they do not look the same via manual settings.

Thanks everyone for your input and help!

Well, if all of the monitors are the same model, then all of their color profiles should be identical. As long as their settings are the same that is.

I'm going to guess that they are in fact not the same. In which case you will never truly get anything to look exactly the same. But you can get it close, which you already have. But with a little more tweaking you can probably get it a bit closer.

They are all the same model....but i did notice subtle variations in them as i was un-boxing them. I have adjusted all of them to the same profile/color settings but they are still different.. sometimes it is more apparent than others. I was really just wondering if there was any insider tricks or tools that can be used....i looked around and could not find anything easy.
