    Been running the 4600 Ti myself. The dual monitor rig is very sweet indeed, but I stuck with the one monitor rig. Currently I've got a Samsung SyncMaster 191T LCD running DVI mode. Very sweet indeed....
    Damn....8 lines...I've gotta put my sig on a diet now....

    Not sure what you mean here Shizelbs? :confused: Not an LCD fan?

    I don't think that's possible. Last time I checked, you could only pick one desktop photo and that's what was on both of your screens.

    I picked up the 191T at BestBuy for $700. It's not a bad LCD monitor at all with real quick pixel response time. I'm very picky about my monitors (I play lots of video games), and will not tolerate streaking at all. Not very noticable on this model. Plus I love the thin frame. Will plan on buying another 191T in the near future and placing them side by side for the dualie mode.

    No sir, I am not an LCD fan at all. What is the big obsession. They do not look better than CRT's. Just go to CC and look at the LCD TV's. Then go look at the CRT TV's. Tell me which is better. Thats right, its the CRT's. I know that for some people the smaller size means a lot, but golly, I think the image quality is not that great. I would much rather have a nice flat $200 19" CRT than a flat $800 LCD. But, thats just my opinion, and really, thats all it is. If you say you like LCD's better, thats cool too.

    the olny problem is with crt is they get hot and are bid i have to move my comp desk to get them to sit right. you merge 2 picks and the 2 pcs each pick will fill up each monotor.
