If I want 16 tables on one monitor, what are my options? - Page 2

This was discussed before, but does that let you see all the action at once and can you click on one of the screens without the others going away?

The highest possible resolution that I have heard of in a comercially available LCD is 3840x2400. The monitor is made by IBM: link
So you could fit 16 tables on that with no overlap. It only costs $8,400, and since it is an LCD, it would not take up a lot of space. Sounds like your best option to me if you are actually serious about this.
Disclaimer: You would probably have to make many hardware and software upgrades to make this work, but I think you should go for it.

You'd also need a video card capable of driving that kind of resolution.

This is way too small for me. I need something bigger so I can actually see my cards.

People underestimate how easy it is to play cascading tables, it's really easy to get used to.

Well, then I think that you're basically asking for something that is not comercially available and thus probably extremely expensive at this point in time.

Apple has some 30" Flatscreens with 2560x1600 Resolution that sell for $2999... maybe the best Display for a reasonable price...

If you are interested in that 4-21 inch square formation...ask Schneids about it.

He had it in his AIM profile link at one point. It's a few thousand, but seems the best way.

They also have a special hook up so your computer can support outputting what it needs to.

6400 by 4800 resolution is not possible even through the highest end commercial graphics cards. The highest non-commercial graphics card I have seen is 2048 by 1536. The highest resolution commercial graphics card (used mainly in media streamling companies) is 3200 by 2400. There is nothing even close to the 6400 by 4800 range.

Your best option Justin is to customize a desktop with 2 video cards and 4 monitors capable of 1600 by 1200. It is a far far better option.
