Hey do you have any photos of your setup? I was thing of getting a third Dell 30", but I am not sure how to maximize 2 at the moment. They are so huge and barely fit on my desk. Did you mount them or set them up in Portrait (vertical) mode? Really curious to see what you did. Hi Dinglesniff. T... |

It's possible, but I think you'll need a calibrator. At the moment I'm using an i1 Display Pro to calibrate my monitors. This makes setting up single monitors a breeze, but three, that’s a whole different ball game. If, what I've read recently is correct, there is no way to do this type of calibrat... |

Sweet, good news. You will probably have a lot of trouble with matching the u3011 and u3014. They have two different types of backlights and they probably have two different panels. I had a dry run set-up last night and the Eyefinity software worked a treat. I was up and running in a couple of minu... |

Update 2. My third monitor arrived last Thursday and I finally had time to set it up this weekend. The new Dell 3014 is a good looking beast with nicely rounded corners and a black brushed aluminium style bezel. After calibration it was easy to see a noticeable difference in image quality between th... |

Hi Suiken. I had an inkling there may be a tearing issue with mixed ports, but I thought I'd ask the experts first. A quick update on my new build. The third monitor was ordered today, a Dell U3014, along with 3 Displayport cables. I've re-arranged my office space a little to better accommodate the ... |

Hey guys. Thanks for replying. After a lot of thought I've decided to invest in a triple monitor set-up. I'll need to source a new desk first as my current one is too small to accommodate such a large amount of screen real estate. I should have time this weekend to take proper measurements but, my i... |

I have a dilemma which I hope you can help me with. I have recently acquired a second Dell U3011 monitor for free and can't decide what to do with it. My two options are, give the free U3011 to my sister to replace her 24” monitor or, keep it for myself and look at buying a third 30” monitor to crea... |
