So, would like to get some opinions on my new findings, this is considering my desk is faced against a wall. If I were to go with 2 monitors instead of 3: 2x http://www.monitorstore.nl/product/451877/category-196445/newstar-nm-w225-zwart.html vs 1x http://www.monitorstore.nl/product/333281/category-196445/newstar-monitorbeugel-fpma-d960d.html I mean, I understand it's roughly the same price but this would probably be better to go with the 2x option if I were to eventually get a third screen right? My only dilemna with the 2-in-1 monitor mount is that it seems to only support max 10kg weight while the ASUS monitor is 5.5kg per screen.

You completely lost me. From what I gather Polaris is AMD and Pascal is Nvidia? Wouldn't the pricing be ridiculous on those things then? According to articles it'd be multiple times faster than a Titan.

Thanks for your reply. If I manage to upgrade a the 770 graphics card to a 980 with 4GB instead of 2GB, would that considerably improve my performance or would I need to upgrade other parts as well?

Thank you for the reply AstroBenny! I definitely think the monitor count is a bit overkill, however it's been a dream of mine to atleast have 3 monitors in a set-up for a while now. 3 proper ones, not just TV's. Do you have any recommendations on what kind of monitors you would pick for a dual-monitor setup? The main reason I was thinking about 3 is primarily to use 1 for my streaming programs, one for the game and one for anything generally for me personally. As for monitor stands, wall or desk, I really don't know, haha! I don't think I will mind either aslong as they do the job, I suppose? My main concern is that my desk isn't wide enough to support 3 monitors next to each other, rather than if they were mounted in a way that it could easily and sturdily extend the two side screens over the side of my desk. If that makes sense. And thank you for the microphone recommendation, I'll add it to my list for future reference and check it out as well!

COUNTRY: The Netherlands PRICE RANGE: I will not be able to afford high-end "state of the art" items but there's no need to be modest either. Good "budget" items are fine (especially for screens, I am not interested in $1000 screens. I just want multiple, solid monitors that just work and do its job) I cannot really name a price range because I have no idea how to determine the costs of the items I need. Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen, Thank you for taking the time to look through my post and potentially helping me out. I have a few things to think about in preparation for next year's summer (yes, not 2016 but 2017!). This is still a bit more than a year away, whilst I understand that, it is about the time when I finish my first degree at school and gives me an opportunity to save up money to do all this. With the support of my family, I am looking towards you guys for helping clear up things that I do not understand and having either trouble looking up on the internet or I just seem to lack the specific patience to find the right answers. First of all, I would like to give you an idea of my current set-up, afterwards what I would like that set-up to become. (I also included a DxDiag for those curious) (note: i'm completely fine on peripherals) GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 770 Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty Z97X Killer Processor: Intel(R) cORE I7-4770K CPU - 3.50GHz (8CPUs) Memory RAM: 16GB OS: Windows 10 64-bit Cooler: No idea, I know it's a CoolerMaster and it's currently doing it's job, making sure my CPU is at about 45-50 degrees while playing high-end games on max / ultra graphics. Monitors: 2 Generic PnP Monitors from Samsung, regular TV screens, very cheap So with my intention of going on YouTube and also streaming on Twitch, the following is kind of what I want. But do please bear with me as I do not know at all what detailed parts I should go for but I will include my research thus far and what I think I need to get. Monitors For my monitors I was really thinking of 3 base monitors with an additional one above the middle screen. This is something that I would build up, over time, even beyond this 1 year period but I wanted to get some advice on how to go about it. As I don't want these monitors to "stand" on my desk, much rather would like to have them mounted against the wall. Current options: https://www.alternate.nl/ASUS/24-Gaming-Monitor-VG248QE/html/product/1055184?tk=14236&lk=14528 https://www.alternate.nl/BenQ/24-Gaming-Monitor-RL2455HM/html/product/1099215?tk=14236&lk=14528 https://www.alternate.nl/iiyama/24-Monitor-G-Master-Black-Hawk-GE2488HS-B1/html/product/1148792?tk=14236&lk=14528 The BenQ and IIyama ones are considerably cheaper, what exactly makes them so? Wall mount for monitors: ??? I have seriously no idea how these things work or what to look for. Streaming PC Eventually, I would love to get a streaming PC for the entire streaming thing however, I am absolutely clueless on exactly how it works and I cannot seem to find a guide I truly understand. From what I understand however, I need: A secondary graphics card for my gaming pc A new graphics card for my streaming pc A secondary SSD for my streaming pc A second processor for my streaming pc 8GB ram should suffice for the streaming pc An hdmi splitter https://synergy-project.org/pricing software to link them together Microphone / pop filters I found a proper mic setup a bit easier to understand but still have trouble finding a proper mic stand / shockmount from the EU. So far I was thinking: Blue Yeti Microphone I am sorry for the long thread guys, hopefully it explained my intentions and wishes. Thanks in advance for all the help, looking forward to some replies. And please remember that money does NOT have to be a factor in recommendations if something is too expensive, I will simply say so but if you have some awesome kick-ass recommendation that is totally worth the price and tell me why then I am always willing to consider putting in effort to save up for whatever you recommended! I want to do this streaming thing right and not half-ass it. I enjoyed it a lot when I was amateur-ing it and this time I want to do it proper! Thanks! Cheers, HidekiGGe DxDiag.txt
