Hyperstrike Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Well, in the process of moving. Finally got my office Computer moved. Still not an IDEAL setup. But I'm not spending out a million dollars to have my all-singing, all-dancing home office. And below is my previous location. If you want to be godlike, pick anything.

Bill Z Bubba Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Much nicer. But I don't think I could game on 3 monitors like that. Think the black bars breaking up the screens would be way to distracting for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zep Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 You get used to it pretty fast. Like looking outside though a screen door. ** Asus Crosshair TUF x570, Ryzen 5950x, Corsair H1500i AIO, TridentZ 128GB DDR4 3200, Sapphire 7900XTX, 48" 4K Samsung 3d & 56" 4k UHD, 2x NVME Sabrent Rocket 2TB Boot, Corsair MP600 Pro 8tb, Seagate 12TB HDD ** ** Corsair Voyager a1600 ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a pain right up front. But once you're used to it... My only regret is not stepping down from 4K monitors to the 2560x monitors. 4K on 27" is still a LITTLE too small (and therefore choppy text) to read at 20/20 vision.

Zep Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 I was playing on 3x 40" 1080p monitors for a while. It is really nice to have the peripheral vision. In game when teaming ppl would comment on how I would seem to know what is going on much better just 'cause I could see more. On 4k now - in some ways the 3x 1080 was better. Not all games play well with the NV Surround though - some are a little annoying some unplayable. ** Asus Crosshair TUF x570, Ryzen 5950x, Corsair H1500i AIO, TridentZ 128GB DDR4 3200, Sapphire 7900XTX, 48" 4K Samsung 3d & 56" 4k UHD, 2x NVME Sabrent Rocket 2TB Boot, Corsair MP600 Pro 8tb, Seagate 12TB HDD ** ** Corsair Voyager a1600 ** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperstrike Posted October 20, 2019 Author Share Posted October 20, 2019 Yeah, for desktop spanning, NVSurround isn't exactly the "best" solution. Especially since the Taskbar stops working right... You get a taskbar that spans ONE screen and doesn't retract... And the tech is, essentially, an abandoned demo. It's infuriating... If you want to be godlike, pick anything.

Bill Z Bubba Posted October 20, 2019 Share Posted October 20, 2019 I'm still old school. On a 32" Curved 144Hz 1080 single screen. Got dualscreen for the workstation, though. Don't think I'll jump to a 4k monitor until video cards can actually push 60+ refresh properly on them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperstrike Posted October 21, 2019 Author Share Posted October 21, 2019 Yeah, I'm a screen real-estate junkie. That's why I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't just run at 4K with no magnification. Had they been 32" monitors or larger...Well, I'd have had to wall-mount the damnable things. Because I don't think there are any armature systems that could handle a triple setup like that. Even now, the setup's a bit worryingly heavy clamped to the end of the table that way. Luckily my computer and the UPS are heavy enough to offset it. If you want to be godlike, pick anything. If you want to be GOD, pick a TANK!
