Does this also imply that you can still see more when using a 1920x1080 16:9 resolution than when using a 2560x1600 16:10 resolution in SC2?

Among the 3 monitors you listed, definitely go with the Dell 2410. With regards to your concern about 27" monitor image sharpness, I am currently using a 27.5" monitor with 1920 x 1200 resolution and while the images/words are definitely larger compared to that of a 24" 1920 x 1200 monitor, the shar...

Hi. I've read somewhere that in Starcraft 2, you can actually see more when using 1920 x 1080 resolution than when using 1920 x 1200. This is kinda odd. Is this actually true? Thanks.

As expected with triple display, the car seems too far away and a lot of image stretching on the sides.

No cheap way. Buy new GPU and two monitors identical to yours.

Nothing to optimize about eyefinity. Plug and play and that's all there is to it.

1. Don't extend it to two displays (Crosshair will be in the middle of the monitor bezels).
2. You have to get the new generation GPUs from Nvidia or ATI to extend the display.
3. You have to have 3 monitors to fully optimize the experience.

1. Buy the new generation GPUs from Nvidia or ATI (Supports multi-monitors of 3 or more out of the box).
2. 3 x Dell u2410 or 3 x Dell u2311

Why did you have a 5870 eyefinity6 gpu when you're not even sure if you will do multimonitors, most especially 6. Three U2410 will cost you a lot of money so if you would want to have 3 displays, look for a different one (U2311).

I really don't get the rationale of spending money on a secondary PC which your friends can use. Why not let them play your main rig which already has multi-monitors? That is essentially spending $1000 ($500 dollars for the second pc and $500 dollars for your main pc). I recommend saving that money ...

With the specs that you want, you have to pay more than $250. None of the TN panels (cheap) rotate 90 degrees. You have to get the Dell Ultrasharp (On sale right now).

A pc monitor with that size and not having a TN panel will cost much more than $600. Only the TN ones cost below that.

Dell U2711 27 Inch IPS - $1000
Asus 27 Inch TN - $400
I-Inc 27.5 Inch TN - $300 (This I currently use)

Save up and get a new video card from either Nvidia or ATI that supports triple display.
