Triple monitor question?

MikeytheSpartan1

Ok, so I have a Samsung 2494SW 24" 1080p LCD monitor right now. As long as they have the same specs, can I buy two different monitors to put on either side and it would look ok??

Thanks

Waaaait, do you mean surround for 5760x1080 or similar?

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

From a software perspective, make sure the other monitors are the same resolution. While you can use monitors with different resolutions, it looks a little weird when widows change sized as you drag them between different monitors.

 

From a hardware perspective, using monitors with thin bezels generally makes things look nicer. Also of all three are the same make and model (and size) it helps with how the whole setup looks overall. Although it won't look too bad if your outer monitors are a different model to your middle one

So long as it's the same resolution it'll be fine? Just strange sized monitors ruin it.
