What is the perfect sized monitor for playing pc games?

30 pc monitor gaming image

Steven

I originally wanted something like 2500x1400 but I think 27 inches might be too big I don't know. I don't want to find out that it's too big and I don't like it because I'm going to be sitting up close to this thing all day everyday. I know I'd like it to be big enough to where the game looks nice, and I'm not at a disadvantage playing competitively but not so big that it hurts my eyes. How far away do you guys recommend sitting from a 27-30 inch monitor?

Get three portrait monitors and wrap it around youso it's curved.

What are the advantages of having two or more graphics cards in a pc?

I know using more than one graphics card will make the PC's graphics better but by how much i.e would it double if you had two identical graphics cards and what specifications would be improved and by how much i.e clock speed, ram etc and are there any disadvantages apart from power usage, cost, weight and air flow?

Answer
For motherboards which support SLI or Crossfire (which are proprietary technologies for Nvidia and AMD/ATI cards respectively).... the performance gains from a 2nd card are usually 50-95 percent depending upon the specific game title.

For SLI, the Nvidia cards must be identical models. For Crossfire, the cards must be from the same family/series (the first 2 digits of the model numbers must match). So you can Crossfire a Radeon HD 5750 and 5770, or 4830 and 4850, not just identical pairs.

The advantages of SLI and Crossfire are simply price. It's cheaper to buy a 2nd identical midrange or higher card 1-2 years later, after newer generation cards have been released and prices on the original models have dropped. So having that extra PCI-E x16 slot serves as a low-cost upgrade path.

Aside from power consumption and heat, the only disadvantage to Crossfire/SLI is that some game titles don't support it very well. Not many, but for some games adding a 2nd card only yields around a 30% performance boost, while others barely see any improvment at all.

Of course non-SLI/Crossfire motherboards can't install multiple PCI-E x16 cards. But people often add a regular PCI card not to improve gaming performance, but in order to drive additional monitors for work purposes (like Wall street professionals who routinely have 4+ screens)
