Project DisplayGRID

So I finally got around building this, after almost a year of planning and saving up money, I finally got around building my awesome screen set up. It essentially is just a wall of screen.

So a package arrived...

This is what was in it.

A nice spoiler shot. 8 21.5" 1080p IPS monitors, from LG, Life is indeed good.

After I unpacked everything.

Preparing my desk, I have to make some new cable management and to secure the monitor stands.

After having everything installed, still have to adjust the angles a bit.

Hooked everything up.

Had to look for a new wallpaper for this resolution. Total resolution of 7680x2160, that is 16.5 Megapixels.

Nice cable management for the power adaptors.

All the cables going to my PC, they were not all the same length, so I had to tighten it up a bit.

Specs of the beast driving this thing:

  • 4930K
  • 32GB RAM
  • 1x GTX670 + 2x GTX660

Love it. Are you going to de-bezel?

I don't think so, I don't really mind the bezel, as I only game on 1 screen.

Doesn't de-bezeling severely lower the lifespan of your screen??

I'd love all dem IPS monitors but I still can't find myself to like all the bezels in the middle of the screen. I love the name of it though - DisplayGRID. Sounds sick!
