Default 6 tabling with 2 monitors( working for 2 days on this, please help)

Ive been searching here and everywhere else for 2 days and I have bought and returned 2 monitors. I have been 4 tabling on a 21" lcd samsung for a year now and am trying to add another monitor. I wanted to add a 19" but I cannot find one that has a resolution of 1600-1200 so there is no overlap. I bought a new vidio card that supports both monitors for digital.
I tried the 19" today but the ovelap suxed and is not something I ever want to go back to!
I read some players are running to 19's with no overlap, are these CRT's? I would rather not have a crt since they take up so much desk space but if this is the only way then I might have to buy another 21" which also takes up allot of room and will be farther for my eyes to travel from one to the other but maybe 2" won't matter much. But I find every edge helps.
I am trying to find the optimal setup! What is your setup?
Thanks guys!

MIKE

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, but the most popular 16x12 LCD on 2+2 is the Dell 2001FP (20").

Most 19" CRTs will do 16x12 but I don't know of a 19" CRT that will.

Hey,

I have the 21.3" samsung as well, and I'm thinking of getting another of the same one. Why don't you just get another 21" samsung?

hogger,

Get a TFT (flat-screen) 21" running at 1600 x 1200.

I've got the one in the attached link - nice unit - works a treat.

http://www.samsung.com/au/products/m...s/tft/213t.asp

Kind regards, Dave/MEL.

I might but I was thinking a 19 inch might be less for my eyes to travel to keep an eye on all games but I don't know if it would be much!

Bison,

It seems like tables 5 & 6 should be on top of 3 & 4. Is the picture incorrect? I assume you're just covering the chat box area on each of the windows, but the pictures seems to show it differently.

Freakin, whatever the intention, when you're playing 10 hands/minute, the tables never stay in order.
