    looking for a 3rd screen.

    Budget: £100-120
    (as close to £100 as possible (or lower :P) )

    Currently have a
    22" Samsung SyncMaster 2233RZ - 120Hz - 3D - 2ms response time - 1680x1050
    http://www.samsung.com/us/system/con...233RZ_DSHT.pdf
    and a

    22" Samsung SyncMaster 226BW- 60Hz - 2ms response time - 1680x1050
    http://www.samsung.com/uk/business/b...06bw_226bw.htm

    I'm looking for thoughts about what screen to get next for either the NVIDIA Surround Vision or the AMD/ATI EyeFinity (probably leaning more to eyefinity than nvidia surround)

    There is a very real chance I might sell the Samsung 2233RZ and get 2 screens to replace it.

    That. And I wouldn't go budget on screens, they're supposed to last you far longer than a rig is. So make sure it's quality!

    (I will disregard my own advice, and go three of the one I already have instead of buying three new expensive ones. Despite the later having DP. :x)

    I don't know, but make sure they're thin bezel. My buddy plays with three thick black bezeled monitors in eyefinity and it drives me insane.

    lol....

    I;m currently thinking:


    Iiyama ProLite E2407HDS 24' Widescreen LCD Monitor - Black
    16:9, 1920x1080 Resolution , 2MS Response Time, 60,000:1 Contrast Ratio, Analogue, HDMI and DVI-D Inputs, Multimedia Speakers,

    But truth be told, I'd much rather stick with getting another Samsung monitor.

    I have the HDB-version of the screen (ie, not hdbe. Mine's older), and I can get 75Hz+ on lower resolution than 1920x1080, ie, native.
    That I can confirm. On native? I cannot. The HDBE, I donot know.
