30" monitor or 2 smaller ones - Page 2

30"

Dual monitors is way overrated for poker. One 30" is the best solution as most everyone is saying.

27'' monitors and below do not have a higher resolution than 1920 x 1080. (unless they're ultrasharp)

30'' "Ultrasharp" is what you want. Those have huuuuuuuuge resolutions.

30'' its not even close. You can get a smaller one on the side if you want. But if price is not an issue just get the 30''.

Not true, just need to know where to look..my 22" has 1920x1200 res

once you go 30 inch you never go back

i rather have 2 19inch than 1 30 ;o)
maybe im too used to having 2 monitors and couldnt have only one anymore

i believe if you got a 30" and kept it for at least a week you would never ever look back.

For 12 tabling i like 2x 24" monitors and 6 table on each screen. No overlap

i would play poker again if i had 2 30inch monitors, thats how good that shit is.

If I was a PS team online pro balla I would buy 2 30" and would not make a thread on LP.

I should have specfified before, i almost never play over 8 tables, i do play games and money is an issue, now that i cant afford it but i dont want to spew unnecesarely.

I didnt know i needed a sick card for a 30" i thought a regular video card could handle it, i was planning on getting a Geforce GTX440 1GB, that cant handle a 30" or 27"?

I use GF460GTX for my dell, but when I bought it i had 260gt and it worked like a charm with 30+20.
The only thing your card needs to have is dual-link technology

dual link meaning 2 ports like DVI And VGA?

nono, there are two types of DVI ports single-link and dual-link

as you can see for WQXGA you need to have dual-link DVI.
If you are really planing to get GTX440, you can be 100% sure it will work.

im starting to think that an initial 27" (and if i find it lacking maybe adding another one later), but most i find are 1920x1080 which are garbage since you cant fit more than 2 tables horizontally without overlapping.

I also switched from 2 x 27" to 1 x 30". I just bought a 20" dell monitor (not widescreen) with 1600x1200 resolution to use as a secondary monitor with the 30".
