Too glossy and consumer looking for my needs.

Go with the 22" setup if you're going to use th2go and SLI. There's no alternative

TH2Go still works with 24" monitors, it just forces the resolution down to what it can deal with.

My main monitor is Samsung SyncMaster 2233sw 22". It's very nice, and big enough with a big res of 1920x1200. I'd get it if you see it.

Can't find any new ones, but NCIX has two open-box units for sale right now. The exact monitor you're asking for.

Already tried to buy them, and when you actually get to the check out it says "The product (24159) was discontinued and removed from the shopping cart". Not sure if it's a site glitch or what, I'll email them.

The two SyncMaster 245B's from NCIX are on their way, and they've got their 3 year warranty from Samsung still in tact starting today. So even if they're shitty cause they're open box I can get on Samsung's ass to fix em up right!

This is going to be a BEAST of a setup, unfortunately I had to loan for the monitors off my parents until I can pay for them completely (since I can't get a job right now). Can't use them until I pay for them in full

, fuck you economy!

You can output SLi to 2 DVI ports as long as they're on the same card I believe.

You just cannot output to 3, 4, 5, 6... without turning off SLi temporarily (or have a third unmatched videocard)

Keep note -- I haven't done SLi yet. Just was on nVidia's website.

My plan was:
• SLI GTX 285's
to
• Single DVI out
to
• Single DVI in
to
• Matrox TripleHead2Go
to
• Three DVI outs
to
• Three Samsung SyncMaster 245B monitors

However I'm going to get the GTX 285 next so I can SoftTH until I get TripleHead2Go. Also, does anyone know of a S-Video - DVI converter that's fairly cheap? I'd like to use all three monitors on a single card until I get the other one.
