    Sure. Currently I run 3 Matrox G450s (dual output 1 ana, 1 digi), and an OCed (!) GeForce 6800. OCed by the manufacturer.

    The only difference I can see is on my lower left hand monitor. It's anal, but it's also on an extra cable cuz it's too far for a normal one.

    But it is more fuzzy, FWIW. And it has a gender-bender for the cable-to-cable connection. So ti's going thru four connections.

    Streaming seems fine on all mons.

    My old system ran one dvi and one vga and I could tell a difference in the white levels that started to be annoying.

    I enjoyed and learned from everyone's pics so far, and all the ideas.

    Here is my system, I just finished yesterday:
    <img src="http://www.helpusall.com/monsNov05.jpg">

    and my back-board for it, about $90 of material from a hardware store, and about $150 for the VESA mounts:

    The monitors are tilted both vertically and horizontally, for a better viewing angle of all the screens.
    The 6 in the center are dell 1905's with the casing removed, which roughly halves the bezel width for each monitor.

    ..used for day-trading for paying bills and the rest of the $ is for helping to create a more free, peaceful, life-oriented existance for people and animals.

    Very nice. I like your ingenuity, this is much cleaner than hooks and rods all over the place. Thanks for the ideas. Btw, what's the mirror on the left for?
