What size are those? AMD or NVIDIA cards?

Getting ready to tear down my three curved 34" LG (in portrait) monitors to move.


Thinking of going with one 49" to replace them all. Going to re-purpose the LGs as zero client photo frames around the house.

All are 28". The lower right one doesn't show up, due to that windows flaw where I can't save the orientation of the 17th and 18th monitor, but still fun to fly this way.

I have 3 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 cards and a bunch of USB to HDMI adapters.

i tried 1 big dispaly vs 2 and went back to 2. it depends on what you're using them for i guess. I get to work from home a couple of days a week and having personal stuff on one and my VDI for work on the other, or VDI for work spread across 2, works best for me. For iracing having the 2 separate gives a better view as well, in fact i want a 3rd for iracing.

That looks great!

Is this through an egpu on your laptop? Or you running a desktop? Working on specing out a new laptop for my side work, really leaning towards the xps15 with the 4K display. I’m used to 3 screens so I think I’m going to need an egpu instead of a simple docking station to run 3 screens at 4K.

It's my desktop. I also find that using just 9 monitors works really well. Learning to fly is a lot easier with a mouse than with the keyboard controls.

Flying is easy...landing on the other hand

:cool1:

I set sail from Los Angeles heading east, and now I'm over a rather large body of water. I'm guessing it's the Atlantic ocean, but I was waiting to see shit that I knew as I crossed the land/water barrier. I thought I was flying over one of the great lakes at first...until hours later I'm still over water. :rofl:

I will try scuba mode!
