    Default What monitor(s) do you use?

    I know that some people prefer to use dual/triple/quadruple displays and others prefer a one screen solution. I am currently using a Dell 27" LCD @ 1920 x1200 and an Acer 23" @ 1920 x 1080.

    I am getting more and more unhappy with the 27" Dell display simple because it pumps out a shitload of heat. I was thinking perhaps LED would run cooler but was looking for peoples thoughts.

    Does anyone have any suggestions and what kind of displays do you use in your setup?

    I'm using a Samsung SyncMaster 305T, which is a 30.5" widescreen monitor.
    2560x1600 resolution.

    With IS Boxer, I have four smaller regions along the bottom of the screen.
    And one larger region across the top.
    Each of the regions is rendered at 1650x1080.

    The slaves are large enough to know if follow has broken.
    Or if they are IWT'ing off of a cliff, etc.
    And with Jamba text forwarding, that's good enough.
    Plus instant swap, if I need to be on another screen (usually for ground-spawn collection quests).

    30" for the main character and 20" for the 4 slaves. Both Apple (the old metalic ones)
    Don't notice any heatproblems with it. It's more the pc which heats up my room.

    It is only the 27" Dell (which is at least a model behind the current one that is out) you could probably cook an egg on it.

    I have 2 23"LG LCDs, I'm not sure of the model and I'm not at my computer. I run my main on one with the slaves on the second one. The monitors are about 2 years old. I've been thinking about getting a couple new ones but I've found that 23" is just the right size for me and they still look good so I'm holding off for now.

    I use a 24" Monitor for my main & a 19" for my slaves.

    I am debating whether or not I would like to use a large screen for gaming or not. They both obviously have their pros and cons.

    Only time will tell.
