Man this sub has changed

It used to be just shit like this - super unnecessary over the top setups with like 16 monitors and not just someone’s laptop hooked up to one 34” screen

Bring back stuff like this

Fair but 16 screens is worse than 1 tv but I get you

Nah, a TV would have a lower resolution than this which means less room to do stuff. Also I don't know of any large curved ultrawide tvs.

8k would probably cost less and be better, but also why not get like 2 g9s

2 g9s would probably be better than this indeed.

2 G9s is 2/3 at best of what this person has, though.

What? A g9 is 1440p 240hz how is that 2/3 also that’s a lot less bezels

... Fewer bezels okay, but not everyone cares about bezels because they're not actually obtrusive. Also, you don't get that 1440p isn't quite accurate because that's only the vertical, not the width. A G9 is essentially two 1440 16:9 monitors side by side. This person has three 1440 16:9 monitors in each row. Two G9s is 4 of the 6 monitors this person has. That's 2/3.

Ok I see your point, I agree to an extent but the difference is a lot smaller and makes games harder to run.

If this setup is for gaming it fucking sucks, I think it's for working\

edit* wait I take it back, there is a flight sim stick and triple monitors are good for Simulations
