Hi all,

At the moment I have a 17" LCD screen, a SlimAge. It looks nice and works well but it's not perfect for multi-tabling. I also want 2 screens instead of one and preferably the same. I know a lot of you guys like the Dell UltraSharp 2001FP but what other screens are good? I did some research and the NEC 2180 UX+ and the Samsung 213 T seem pretty good too. Any other suggestions?

Which one would you advice and why? I use my PC to play poker, surf the internet and some old games, nothing fancy really. Please tell me what I should look for and what the advantages and disadvantages are for every screen.

Also what videocard should I buy? At the moment I have a 9600 Radeon.

Thanks,

Guido

There was a post in one of the forums a couple days ago about a $200 rebate on the Samsung.

I have a HP 2304 23" LCD /images/graemlins/cool.gif. Its spendy ( $1700 ) but its awsome.

I've got an NEC/Mitsubishi AccuSync LCD200VX - Bright, clear and solid. No complaints.

Also have an AccuSync LCD71VX - Older 17" model that has served me well. I rarely more than 4 table so I don't presently require the 2nd one to be 1600x800. Will eventually trade it up though.

Thanks for the responses so far.

When you had to choose between:
Dell UltraSharp 2001FP
NEC 2180 UX+
Samsung 213 T

Which one would you choose and why?

Thanks,

Guido

I live in Europe so I will buy it here. Do you know if there are any rebates in this region.

Thanks,

I run the XFX 6600GT w/dual-DVI. It rocks for dual LCDs

I've had the Dell for a few months now and I love it. For price/performance it's very tough to beat.

My brother has a 2 monitor setup already but wants to add another monitor or 2 eventually.

Should he just buy another video card and install in the AGP slot or is there more to it?

So you run both monitors of one computer?

If you are playing eight games, you minimize 4 screens on one monitor and vica versa? Does this work on one computer?
