This year I bought myself a present. It's been on my "wish list" for a very long time. It's a Dell 30 inch IPS monitor. To put the size of the monitor in perspective, each monitor to the left and right of the middle (30 inch) are 24 inch monitors. This monitor is pretty sweet I have yet to game on it, but I shall try that pretty soon! The graphics card that is driving that beast is a GeForce GTX 660Ti.

The top right creen is for things I don't care about like downloads. The left monitor is for remote assistance sessions via gotoassist. The Right monitor is for chatting and the middle monitor is for everything else.

Oh and the top left screen isn't even connected to this computer. It's connected to my server / security system / voice mail system computer.

Wow if you are using that many screens for gaming and general desktop use is overkill.

Sentence didn't really make sense. So what is overkill?

It is also possible to do 3 full screen remote sessions all at the same time with my 3 monitor (or more if I run 2 windowed on the new 309 inch) configuration (the screenshot is of my old monitor)

Haha nice. I still haven't figured out my Christmas present to myself this year. Probably won't get anything, and just save my money :p

Uh...running a 30" display at full resolution on a 660 TI isn't going to be that pleasant of an experience. :s
