Hi, I'm new here and was wondering if I could get some advice on doing a triplehead setup.

I've kinda picked the parts, so it's really a case of someone throwing an experienced glanced just in case there's something I haven't spotted.

The stuff is as follows:

Ergotron LX Triple stand

3 LG 19" L1942S-SF monitors
http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.aspx?sku=452155
I've a limited amount of space for my work area, so I'll just barely be able to manage to fit these 3, also, I don't want the the widescreen ones with limited vertical area.

Matrox TripleHead2GO Analogue Edition
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Matrox-Graphics-eXpansion-Module-TripleHead2Go/dp/B000H4WMC8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1244037152&sr=1-2
Given the screen sizes, available resolutions, and that I'm running XP, this seems to be ok for my setup.

Seeing as I'm new and haven't actually contributed so far, and that I'm basically asking for advice, I'll say thanks in advance for any replies and suggestions.

Even if youll play now on 3 x 19", but you can use higher resolutions later, and the Digital Edition can have its firmware updated by the USB connection. :P

Get the TH2go digital version. So you want to use triple 19" 4:3 monitors. Please keep in mind that if a game doesn't support the triplehead2go, you will only be gaming at one screen, which is not widescreen. If you have triple 22" monitors, you will still be gaming in one widescreen monitor without the TH2go.
