Silverfox Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 i'd rather use dual 17's than have one 22" monitor For gaming, one 22" is way better than dual 17's unless you have both working at once in-game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigred Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 For gaming I wouldn't. the world doesn't revolve around gaming. there are those of us who use the computer a LOT but don't game much at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverfox Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 the world doesn't revolve around gaming. there are those of us who use the computer a LOT but don't game much at all. Indeed. But simply suggesting 2x17" > 1x22" is therefore not always correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze_Badger Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 This week for OCC Poll #8, we're talking monitors. More specifically, how many monitors do you have on your main PC? With prices on monitors dropping almost every month, It'll be interesting to see if more people are switching to multiple monitor setups Like all Official OCC Polls, this one will be over this coming Sunday (April 22th) What's the 22th, Mr. Grammar Sheriff? Anyway, I'm on a laptop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigred Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Indeed. But simply suggesting 2x17" > 1x22" is therefore not always correct. I would never argue that with you. it all depends on what you're doing. and sadly the gaming market was not the intended purpose of the multi display graphics card. history tells us this. first "dual head" card was the matrox g400. it SUCKED in games but was great in business apps... where dual displays make more sense.

sdy284 Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Indeed. But simply suggesting 2x17" > 1x22" is therefore not always correct. i never said that 2x17" > 1x22" i said that I'd rather use 2x17" than 1x22" for me & how much i game, i'm very happy with my dual 17" setup. do i want a bigger monitor? Hell yes. But even if i do get a 22" monitor, i would still have a second monitor hooked up to my rig Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingdingeling Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 If I wanted.... I could hook up my 17" CRT with the 22" LCD I have now, but then again my desk would be way too crowded! I'm more than happy with this thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
