    Default New monitors

    Hello, So now i have been thinking of adding 3 more benq xl2420t.
    Since i already have 3, and want 3 more. So i was wondering if anyone know if it them all will work with this GPU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121560

    And if anyone know a Monitor arms that i attach to the table so i can have them over the other 3 screens.
    I hope you understand what i mean.

    According to http://hardforum.com/archive/index.php/t-1700484.html that card does in fact support eyefinity 6 (6 monitors).
    I use the older 5870 to power 5 monitors. Have been for sometime now with no problems.

    So i just ordered 3 more screens, 3 AX2000 monitor stands(hopefully they will get over the other screens) and ofcourse 3 display port adapters.

    Yeah Thank you for the tips about those stands, but they were way to expensive if i was gonna need 3 of them and 3 screens more.
    So i took 3 that costed 80 euro each instead.

    Might upgrade to them one day, if i see them in the stores here in sweden.
    Since i dont wanna buy outside europe and i couldnt understand shit on Amazon germany

    I went with way cheaper stands too when I first set everything up. I think I paid $89 (US) for each stand I have now. They work pretty well. No complaints except for weight maybe.

    I will not be upgrading real soon either. I am still trying to decide if I want to go down to 3 27' monitors and lose the other two.
    When I moved up to 5 screens it wasn't necessarily for boxing, though it was a please, but for work. Now that I don't do much Flash or IOS I really need 5 monitors.

    And going to only 3 monitors simplifies things greatly.
