Dual Monitors

  1. What's a good combo to have? Brand/Size?

    I got a 20" HP Widescreen, so I dunno if I should get another the same, get a 24" of the HP, or a 24" of some other brand (which maybe less expensive).

    Do you guys have same brand and size for your monitors? Would it look weird if it was different size and different brand?

    personal preference man..just if u can work with the different sizes...i've had good experience with hp...samsung and dell when it comes to monitors...right now i use 3 24 inch dells and no complaints..i wanted to keep them all the same size and model for visual consistency...
     
  3. yea.. thas what I'm thinking.. like it would look more unified..

    but at the same time I think it might be cheaper to get a diff. brand.. =/

    oh I dunno... =(

    go to bestbuy.... see if they have any velocity micro or samsung 22" in stock.. use dual for those.. those 2 are around $160 each.. on clearance :D
     
  5. they are on clearance right now?

    damn the thing is I kinda wanna get at 24" cause that's when the res is 1900x1200.. whereas 20" n 22" got same resolution..

    lol i dual screen with my laptop with a 19" monitor so one is bigger and a little higher than the other one so its a bit weird. sometimes using dual screens is cool because you can play games or watch a movie on fullscreen then like surf the web or talk on aim on the other one heheh. i do that hahahh other than that . nothing really
