Yea unless the monitors had super thin bezels I don't think I'd be able to rock a three monitor setup.

However racing and flight simulators would be totally different. I've thought about buying a racing wheel and setting up a three monitor/tv setup but my bank account has always said different haha

The bezels don't bother me, they actually "disappear" once I use it a bit as long as they are less than a half inch or so. As long as the monitors line up evenly at the top it primarily looks like one big screen to me. Lining them up sounds easy, but if they tilt it can be a bit of a challenge sometimes.

At work I use 2 27" monitors, the monitor from my Surface Book and a 50" monitor (actually a Samsung TV with Miracast). The Surface screen usually has my calendar on it, the larger one some system monitoring screens and I use the 27" screens for my primary work.

How's that refresh rate on that beast? 144hz blow's 60hz out the water huh.

Its nice! Now is the monitor worth the asking price meeeeeh. Only reason I got it is a friend split the cost with me for a wedding gift.

Speaking of monitors, I want one of these real bad but just can't justify it.

(In case it goes away 65" multi-touch monitor for $995 on Woot)

Clipdat · 07-14-2016, 12:06 PM

144hz is so worth it.

I could totally use one, but the Westinghouse I already have is crap. Hence no sale.

Hope they get the quality in control really wanted the IPS rog swift (could do 165Hz too if I'm not mistaken) but they had horrible quality issues.

I ended up with the dell S2716dg, which you can find on sale a lot for around 500. Pretty high quality 144Hz TN G Sync monitor.

I really like the specs on some Dell monitors and have considered purchasing one many times but I don't like Dell's warranty on pixel defects. I do not know how often one gets dodgy pixels but I didn't want to take the chance.

I've bought three different dell monitors so far and they were all great out of the box, evenly backlit with no dead pixels. So I trusted them on the G sync monitor purchase. But I do feel you on that, and they are kind of a real pain in the *** to deal with if you do have to set up an RMA for sure. Hopefully when I'm in the market again there will be some crazy OLED G sync high refresh asus monitor haha.
