Cicero posted:If you have a monitor in portrait mode, is there an easy way to get windows to take up half the screen vertically instead of horizontally? 1. Right click desktop. 2. Click Screen Resolution. 3. Click monitor in question. 4. Click Orientation drop down menu and change from Landscape to Portrait.

Basically I just need something in the 18-20" range that can be used to display long lists of crap. Anyone know of a specific model/brand that can do this?

Tatsujin posted:I want to get a third display for each of my two desktops. They both have identical video cards (ATI 5850 - HDMI/DVI-I/DisplayPort) that currently have HDMI going to TVs, and DVI going to existing displays. It looks like I would need an active adapter due to the weirdness of the video card, so it feels like I'm either paying a shitton for an active adapter, or a higher-class display that utilizes DisplayPort. It just seems like I'm screwed either way and I shouldn't have chosen this video card to begin with. Wrong. The video card is fine. There aren't many cards that do 3x dvi/HDMI natively (those that do are very expensive). And a Dell U2312 which has displayport is less than 200 bucks. Get the Dell.

Doctor rear end in a top hat posted:I'm thinking about getting a couple of Dell 2007FPs. They're 1600x1200 and ~99.5PPI. I have a Dell U3011 which is 2560x1600 and ~100.5PPI. My plan is to turn the 2007FPs on their side to flank the U3011. There's about 1/5 of an inch in difference between the panels in height, so if I center them vertically, there should be ~10 pixel discrepancy at the top and bottom where the monitors meet. That seems close enough to where it wouldn't bother me. I've got a 2GB 6950 so it should be able to drive 3 monitors. Has anyone else tried something similar to matching up different panels? Am I missing anything? I'm doing exactly this with my 6950 and my u2311h x 2 and u3011. Works great.

Doctor rear end in a top hat posted:Do you have the u2311hs in portrait? I wanted to do this so the 1600px sides would line up. Yes, they are in portrait (the 2 2311Hs on the sides. The 2311H on top is clearly in landscape  )The big one in the middle is the U3011.

Depends on the GPU I believe. Technically VGA can definitely do 1080p and possibly 1200 too. You can't daisy chain. The monitors only have dp in. No out.

Buy a displayport cable. The monitors have displayports.

ConanTheLibrarian posted:I jumped on the hype train and bought a Acer XB271HU. loving hell the stand on this thing is huge. If you're considering one, keep in mind that you'll need about 8 inches of space behind the screen. I had a 24" monitor with a sensibly sized stand, so between the increased screen area and it being closer to me, it's on the borderline of being too large. Does it have vesa mounting holes so you can use your own desk clamp instead of the monitor stand?

I have a decent computer with a nVidia 1080 and am currently running 2 x Dell U2311H monitors (1080p each, 60hz). They are showing their age. Not enough pixels on each monitor, screens are a bit small, and not good enough a refresh rate. I want something that will be 120hz or higher, not-TN and ideally whatever Variable Refresh Rate tech a nVidia 1080 can run with the latest drivers (gsync, freesync2, adaptive sync?) but if the thread thinks VRR is not useful or imperceptible, happy to forego it. It needs to be more pixels than 1080p and bigger than 23". I basically want a new monitor to play Doom Eternal on. I am happy to wait till basically March 14th before pulling the trigger, if that helps (Doom Eternal is out March 20th). I don't mind buying pre-loved/used/open box, and the max I'm willing to spend is about £350 (I'm in the UK). What monitor should I buy?

It just arrived today. It's excellent. One niggle: it's brightness is very bright. It can be adjusted down, but only so much, best to use in a lit room, in the dark at night, with no other lights, it would be a bit too bright IMO.

Paul MaudDib posted:a decent IPS monitor still is at absolute minimum $100 so you have owned these monitors for $100 ea divided by X years. I am still going strong on a Dell U2311H (one of 3 I've had over a decade). The other 2: gave one away (still works), 1 started getting flickery (backlight issue) after a decade of hard hard use. I also had a U3011 which still works fine too, also gave away to a mate. Dell makes good poo poo. I am currently rocking an Acer XV272 (thanks thread!) and that last U2311H.

I switch input sources a lot, e.g. from HDMI1 for my laptop to HDMI2 for my desktop, or Displayport to DVI. I have a Dell U2311H and a Acer XV272U. Both require 3 or 4 clicks of physical buttons on the monitors themselves to switch input source. I want to replace the Dell U2311H with a new monitor. Criteria required: 2560x1440 or bigger. 27". IPS. 60Hz or higher. 120hz is a plus. VRR not important, but would be nice to have. Input interfaces: HDMI, DP at least. USB-C would be a plus. and the most important: 1 click to switch between input source. Nice to have: a remote to switch input source. Any recommendations? I'm in the UK.

It'll be fine for 2D games. It will not be fine for any modern 3D games. It will be fine for desktopping.
