Nice Pugwash!
What's the actual screen size for your 3d monitor and how much did it set you back?
I'm looking into buying 3 monitors myself soon, and wondering about any recommendations?- David0 -
It was a bargain "open box" offer on OYYY one month. It's a 23" display and included nvidia lcd specs, all for £150 delivered. :beer:
I would recommend you buy three identical ones if you need colour consistency, or be prepared to fiddle with the settings. I have two 4:3 monitors but the vertical size is nearly the same as the 16:9. Not perfect, but good enough for my needs.0 -
