    Default Questions about Multi-monitor setup

    I currently have a 28" Hanns-G monitor that runs at 1920x1200 resolution and a small litle 19" monitor that runs at 1440x900. (I 4 Box) If any of you guys had this setup, how would you set up the screens to better fit everything? For the past week or two I've been changing my setup every day and I cant find something that I like.

    I'm only askng because a bunch of litle things like the text being too small to read on the 19" monitor / other things are bothering me and I just want a setup that will last a while.

    Also, lets say I have, on my main screen, a window that is 1920x1200. On the second monitor, I have them split up to something like 800x600 or something like that. Do the games being different resolutions cause lag? What is the best way to arrange the resolutions? I've been here for a few months and I thought I remember reading somewhere that if the games are diffrerent aspect ratios it will cause lag.

    Thanks for all the help guys,

    replace the 19" with a screen that can do 1920x1200 is what I did.

    With PiP I can switch easyly a alt to the main screen. (single computer setup)

    My maximizer (keyclone) is configured for a 1920x1200 resolution which automatic scales to 1920x1200 div 2 on the second screen for the alts.

    Some of the Alt addons are scaled to 2.0 to make them good visable (e.g healbot, decurse, MINIMAP)

    Check out my profile on the Wiki to get the picture.

    cheers

    I think in your situation, I'd probably use the big monitor to fit all the alts on and use the 19" for my main. I'd also try to keep the aspect ratio simply because it looks stupid to me when I don't. It will probably mean that your alt monitor won't be filled with wow screens, but at least it will looks right
