What are the dollar bills for? Self-imposed penalties?

Edit: The pics are large enough that they screwed with the width of the thread, so I changed them to links.

The monitors are Samsung 213Ts, which you can get for $750-$850 right now. The mount for the four monitors was $370, I believe. The video card that has 4 DVI outpus was $550.

They are trophies, collected from poor schmucks who made $1 bets with me. The picture cut out most of them, but I have over 40 $1 bills, each with a name written on it in black permanent marker.

god damnit. this whole time i had a vision of what "The Dude" looked like. Coincidentally, it was exactly was The Dude looks like in TBL. Now I have a new image and it's just not as amusing.

Is it possible for my motherboard to have that slot, but still not be compatible with a quad-display video card?
No.

Well, when I called the guy back and talked to him again, he insisted that the PCI-E card would not work on my motherboard. Yes it has the slot, but no it isn't compatible with that specific video card. He sent me different drivers for the video card, and since updating them I have no problems.

I have another 1 Gig of RAM that I had shipped out to me, it should arrive today.

I don't see how this is possible, the HP m1070n supports x16 PCI express which is a standard. There is no logical reason why it would not work. I'd ask for specifics.

Dumb question. When you were running 2 monitors, were you also running the same number of poker windows? The PCI bus should NOT be a limit. You don't have to refresh the whole screen from system memory every frame. Thats why cards have ram. I think it is more likely that that many tables is overloading your cpu.

Dude. It is me to does the first image show that in

Monitor 3 Table 2 has the same game as Monitor 4 Table 1

And

Monitor 3 Table 1 has the same game as Monitor 4 Table 3

Are you playing the same tables with two different accounts?

haha, you look too closely. I don't own a digital camera, and when my friend came over to let me use it, I wasn't working. So I just pulled up some tables to show what it looks like when I do. It won't let me sit at the same table with any two of my Eurobet, Empire, or Party accounts.
