I want to be able to use 3 or 4 monitors. Pls give specs. Also need laptop to use as backup. How much bandwidth is enough? Which monitors would you buy? Thanks.
what is your budget? I'm still a fan of square monitors. I'd look for some 19" or 20" square monitors, throw them on a DS100 ergotron stand and attach a computer to it. Video cards are dirt cheap these days - litterally you can buy very good dual monitor cards for <$10. PCs are like anything else - the sky is the limit and totally depends on your budget.
1920x1080 is the only thing you should buy. Best bang for your buck. Next in line would be a 2560x1440. I don't think a 2560x1600 is available in LED, which leads me to: DO NOT BUY ANYTHING BUT LED BACKLIT!!!! I don't care if anyone agrees or disagrees with this, whoever does sucks and is wrong, and I bet they are losing money in their portfolio.
Under ten bucks? How cheap are you? Buy a dual monitor plety good for grainy at $90-$110. Or buy a six port for $200 and buy six 1080's for $300 total. Check out the six monitor arms on eBay.
^-- not a bad idea, although I believe more than two 27"'s would be nice, and the prices on the PC's for this sort of thing cannot be beat. Six (min) 1080p's, or four-six Apple 27" would work fantastic. Work is love, remember that
just go to tigerdirect.com or newegg.com plenty of dual and quad video cards at good price levels example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...Id=1&name=$50 - $75&ShowDeactivatedMark=False go with at least a 19" monitor, it'll be easier on your eyes, 23" and 24" are best and can be found for around $175 - $250 ea example: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...Id=1&name=$50 - $75&ShowDeactivatedMark=False
