6 30" vs 75 30" - Hmm...

AUSTIN, Texas — The world's highest resolution tiled display has been deployed by the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin.

"TACC just dedicated our newly transformed Visualization Laboratory in October, and now we've expanded 'Stallion' to almost double the effective resolution of the system to 307 million pixels," said Kelly Gaither, associate director of data analysis and visualization at TACC. "This expansion makes Stallion the highest resolution tiled display in the world."

The system features 75 high-resolution Dell 30" displays, arranged in 15 columns of five displays each. Each display has a resolution of 2560x1600 for a combined total of 307 million pixels. With more than 36 gigabytes of graphics memory, 108 gigabytes of system memory, and 100 processing cores, Stallion enables datasets to be processed on a massive scale.

The next largest tiled display is a 14x5 display (70 monitors) at the University of California San Diego with nearly 287 million pixels..........

Yeah, but what kind of FPS do they get in Shatt on an AV weekend?

Should hook up 30 of those imo

...and the point of this really big screen is?

The visualization industry is growing. Visual supersystems and displays are required as data and models are becoming exponentially larger and more complex. It is especially important for engineers, scientists, researchers in aerospace, energy and defense. Video walls are becoming more and more common as hardware technology increases and costs decreases.

I like this one for the desktop - http://www.digitaltigers.com/zenview...enterelite.asp

Although that price is pretty steep, you can buy the monitors and stand at other places for about 30-40% off.
