Hey all,
I know next to nothing about computers!!!! (disclaimer)
I currently have 2 Dell FPS 2001's hooked up. I like them and all cause 6-8 tabling is a lot easier. Problem is when I 8 table the 10 max, I still get bored. I like to surf 2+2 and other sites. I was curious, what the best monitor setup you guys would recomend if my budget is up to $5,000. I want something I can 8 table and watch live at the bike on, etc. etc.
Thanks in advance.

2405FPW in the middle, two 2001FP's on the sides.

Looks like this:

I guess I'm stupid, cause I have no idea how to hook up 3 monitors. (I know how to do 2 thanks to the salesman)
Do I need a new graphics card or what??? All help appreciated. Also I have a Dell XPS Gen 4, pretty new, is that capable of 3 monitors??

Raptor from the STT forum has the best set-up I've seen, four Dell's on a special stand arranged in a square grid. Takes up surprisingly little space and looks absolutely perfect for massive multi-tabling. Maybe you can get a photo from him, I don't have the link handy of when he posted it here.
