| Okay, finally took some pics... You can see the triple monitor's of course. The desk is Basyx by HON. It's nothing fancy, but it's very sturdy and solid. Gets the job done well. I like to have my monitors up a bit at eye level instead of on the desk so I'm looking down on them. Of course I've gotta ... |

| So a few month ago I bought a new ASUS desktop. My old one was getting flaky and I wanted to upgrade anyway. This computer was a nice mix of performance without breaking the bank price wise either. However, what it certainly did not have was 1.) A lot of space for expansion and 2.) decent air flow. ... |

| Another things to consider is going away from the triple monitor stand. I was seriously thinking of going the direction of a triple mount to gain height and also free up desk space. But I found a very cheap solution that works very well. I got a couple of steralite drawers (about $4 each) and a shel... |

| A about a week or so ago I rearranged my desk to better accommodate my triple monitor setup. In the process I wanted to get as much of the cords up off the ground as I could to make it look neater and to also prevent me from kicking them when I was using my computer. I used extensive amounts of 3M c... |

| Another thing to consider... buy a free standing shelf from an area home improvement store and lay that across your desk. This would "expand" the reach on either side. This is also great if you want some extra height. I have enough room on my desk for my three monitors, but I wanted them higher. (I ... |

Mouse: Logitech MX Revolution
And I hope my mouse never goes bad because it looks like they don't make these anymore.
That is a nice looking mouse there. Interesting having dual scroll wheels. Do they both to vertical scrolling or can you do horizontal with one and vertical with the other? |

In theory that should work, however the BIOS may disable the onboard gfx card when it detects the dedicated ATI gfx card.
Thanks for the tip on where to look. You are right that my BIOS only seems to allow one Vid card at a time. :(
Oh well. |

The Samsung MD230 has 7.6mm side bezels.
Looks like they have some nice features built into that monitor setup. First monitor company to really target average multiple screen users? |
