24" monitors

Post by Nsidious9 »

hey all, I have 2x24" samsung monitors (245bw) and about to get a 3rd, and wanted to know if the th2g would be worth my while since the native resolution is 1920x1200. All the information I could find is that the recommended size of the monitors are 19" 4:3 at 1280x1024.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Its quite simple: set both your monitors to 1280x1024. If you can stand the resulting image, go ahead and get the triplehead. Any problems should become immediately apparent.

I am actually pondering this setup for myself. I'd like to run 3 of those LCDs in portrait mode at 3x1200x1920 then use SoftTH with a mobo like the ASUS P5W64 WS Pro or L1N64-SLI WS depending if I go AMD or Intel. I'd just throw my 8800GTS 320's in and play. That might just be xmas for me. :D

Yeah triplehead across 3 24"s would be pretty fugly but if you put them far enough away it might look ok.

Be aware that vista doesn't support the widescreen triplehead resolutions.
