  1. Budget: 4.5k USD -10k USD Location: TX, USA. Aim: super desk! Giant viewing/multitasking display setup. Being able to casually, and rarely game in 4k w/ surround at proper FPS is wanted but not needed. PC gaming is secondary to just make it all work. Would like to build one 3-4 screen setup first, and then another one later this year, if someone has a way to make all eleven fit that be cool too. Monitors: I have 11 4k TVs 55”-65”, and am eyeballing that new 49” UW display. Six of which are all Samsung Qled Peripherals: I have all that I need. WHY?: I remember wanting a setup like this after having seen the movie “Blank Check”. I must have been 8 or 9. Childhood dream, trying to make it happen. Not an upgrade, just a build. I am a display fiend. A screen junky with a serious pixel addiction. For the last 2 years I have been living (simultaneously) in 5 rented spaces strewn about my city. My lifestyle has changed and I am now a homeowner. So I have slowly been closing leases and making moves. I had roughly 2-4 55inch to 65inch 4k QLED/UHD televisions at each living/working space. Now, after having spent the better part of the month moving and packing up, I am currently sat alone in my now mostly empty 780ft studio apartment, kept company by the ELEVEN 4k televisions that now live here, and sit unused, just chilling. This lease won't end for another year, and is paid in full. So, I have nothing but time and want to use some of these Displays to make a crazy set up. I know specificity is important here, and ill revise when I can find everything, but I simply do not have all the details on me currently. So to give a short list w/out full model numbers and specs the TVs I currently have w/ me are as follows: -2 Vizio D Series (dumb TVs) @55inch. -1 Vizio D series (smart cast) @55inch. -2 LG sj9500 @65inch -6 Samsung QN55Q6F 4k ultra @55inch. Ideally, I am looking to make either a 6 display setup, with the Samsung Qleds. Anything I make will primarily be used as a workstation/ trade desk/ and for entertainment (browse, movies, console game) Although secondary to my needs and wants Gaming (w/ surround in 1080p-4k) is a feature I would very much like to have. Space is small, so I am more fond of the idea of having 2 setups w/ 3 of the Qleds, and a pair of ultra wides below. I currently only have a handful of 1070s in an old mining rig, which I think will not be of any use to me in this endeavor. I know that I will need ALL of the VRAM, and a CPU that won’t bottleneck, some serious RAM as well. With CES coming up, Nvidia pulling a Nvidia and robbing us of the beloved GTX1080ti stock… I am at a loss. Don’t Know much about RTX… I just all of sudden have all these screens, free time, and cash. If anyone Has any suggestions as to which GPU(s), CPU(s), mobo, etc I should consider to power and run the pixels of three to four 55inch 4k Qled TVs, in surround, and possibly an ultra wide as well, id love to hear any input. with boxes full of peripherals, and home theatre supplies I literally have everything that I need…exception being THE COMPUTER to power it all. I have no idea what to build… but am I crazy to think that I can make it happen for under $ 5.5k?
  2. one early September morning I had to make a 3 am Walmart run for some decent wool socks. They had every "dumb" TV on sale. I picked up 2 55" 4k class Vizio D series for $249.00 a pop. Had I known that the future of smart TVs was going to be this stupid, I would have grabbed a few more; or at least a higher class product. All of the mid and high range smart TVs will do you just fine, the settings menu is your friend. I hate most "smart" things because the features can get in the way of my tinkering. I am waiting for the day when I can just buy some giant, and beautiful displays A la carte. until that day comes, ill be looking for the dumb tubes. really seems like the end of an era...
  3. I went through the same problem for a handful of years, both my chairs and my mattresses had to be replaced every year and a half or so. I am 6'2" and 240 (187cm?-108kg? to the.....yet to be liberated) I spend three consecutive days a week on my feet as a Paramedic, and the following four days I am at my desk trading/finance/learning. at around 27 I came to the realization of just how important my "sleep hygiene" and sitting habits are. It was a pain playing Goldilocks, going around town searching for the perfect fit; but I am so happy that I did. My suggestion is that if you have an idea of a chair that could/would/will work for you but it seems too expensive, give it a test drive, buy locally and with a good warranty/ return policy if possible. Best money that I have spent in a very long time. look to spend $700.00-$2,500.00 anything less and you'll most likely remain in chair purgatory.
