I just wanted to share some pics of my newly built rig, with surround gaming. I wanted to take some of the inside wiring of my rig but for some blasted reason the camera stopped working in the middle of me taking pics. Really nice motherboard, everything worked first time.

Hey Twilight,

Afford it? lol, far from it. Many months of painful saving up. . The desk I bought 2 years ago at frys, I believe for $120.00. I think they still sell it too.

You can get three monitors working with 2 video cards that have 3 VGA or DVI ports between them. Its best to make sure all monitors run at the same resolution.

That is a pretty insane setup... I've been thinking of going to 2 monitors... but 3!! That must be something to sit in front of everyday!

You get pretty use to it. There is more of a impact when you do 2 monitors for the first time. So if you do go 2 you will have that (this is pretty sweet feeling). When you hit three its ( do I have the room for this?!). 4 would just be overkill, unless your a day trader which I am not.
