Yah its pretty cost effective, if I had to do it again I'd go for three crossovers, the one ACD in the center could pay for the 3 monitors and the 3 wall mounts give or take $100. Hows that 4 screens treating you? I always like more room lol

4 screens is nice. they're usually 5 but the 5th is a 15" monitor only for this one music porgram.
the 4 is nice. i just turned the 30" today to see how it is in portrait mode. it's usually in landscape mode to work on phots in picasa and lightroom. the 3 portrait is where most of my work is done. i usually have 5 million tabs floating in opera browser.

I have 3 Crossover 27Q Led-P , I use them i portrait mode but I have overlapped the screens because of the uneven bezel.
I bought them from bigclothcraft, very helpful and he pays the return fee if the monitor is faulty.

The screens is good for gaming and general use. Works well with fps games as well.
I'm very happy with these monitors and would recommend them to anyone who has some patience ^_^

The only tricky part is getting a good color profile because there is no osd. With only one monitor it's quite easy but if you're thinking of eyefinity it gets trickier, because then all monitors will use the same color profile.

Hope this helps you somehow with your decision, best luck smile.gif

here on ocn ppl tend to think overkill. when i came here i only had a p4 and ppl made me buy i hadn't planned...

i'd say think long term. since you're mb can take 2 cards, after you get your first monitor think of getting 2 or 3 of the same monitor. after the first monitor plan on getting another gpu, then go for the second monitor. then the third smile.gif
