bladebarrier Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Hi ED Community, I'm looking to do an upgrade to my monitor setup and I was hoping to find some advice. I currently have a Samsung 22" wide, and a Samsung 19" 4:3. I saw that CH makes a "MFD" product that looks interesting to me, but I would prefer to go with an actual touch screen monitor that would perform a similar need. The other route I was considering would be multiple displays using something like SoftTH, and buying a MFD type of device to replicate the touch portion. In this case I would upgrade to a third 19, or go with three 22" monitors. I'm honestly not sure I really need that wide of a view though, as trackir does a great job already, and large lcd's are quickly dropping in cost. I'm afraid that multiple monitor rendering will be difficult if not impossible for some games/sims, which is why I was leaning towards some sort of a touch display that would allow me to use a screen shot of in game graphics, to use as the key overlay. Is this something that's realistic, and would it be a nightmare to set up? Thanks very much, Barrier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urze Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 (edited) IMHO-This is a decision you have to do yourself... but look at this video to make up your mind: http://www.veoh.com/videos/v1627326198keXc3X AFAIK uses the guy in the vid a 22" top monitor and a 15" touchscreen on a XP set-up for BS. I think that I read somewhere that it was a 1680x2100 "span" mode resolution. BTW: Someone should slap him in the face if he release a video with such bad sound levels again!

Yes, that looks very good to me. Thanks Urze. And yes, that sound was very painful to listen to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
