Kappa1873 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Hey guys...For any of you who have a really nice online poker setup, I have a question about monitors.I want to get set up with a monitor so I can 4-table on one screen.Can any of you help me out and let me know how big of a screen I am gonna need and any other specs I'll have to allow for.If any of you saw the WSOP last year where Scott Fischman showed his monitor, he had 4 tables spread out on his monitor. That's what I'm talking about.Thanks in advance.Josh Link to post Share on other sites
Username 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 Anything that can support 1600x1200 resolution will work just fine. Dell 2001FPs seem to be the most popular choice from what I've gathered but if you don't want to shell out $500+ per monitor you can probably find some old CRT monitors for considerably less.

WaffleMcHat 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 i got a dell 2005fpw that easily supports 4 tables for 480$ shipped off of ebay.I thought it was a little too good to be true but I got it and I am extremely satisfied. I highly reccomend it if you are wanting a lcd that supports multi-tabling. Link to post Share on other sites

monoatomic 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I have two monitors side by side and in my opinion is the better setup then just the one monitor. You can have a browser open on one side and your poker on the other. How mine is setup I can watch TV on one screen and have all my tables open up on the other. Plus having two monitors, it's easier to see playing on two different sites at the same time.I have dual 19" CRT Samsung Syncmaster. Best dot pitch of any CRT monitor, and very affordable at $199 a piece. Link to post Share on other sites
tripOne 0 Posted July 2, 2005 Share Posted July 2, 2005 I have a 21" Trinitron set at 1600x1200 and it fits 4 tables perfectly.Basically as someone said above, just make sure the monitor supports that resolution and you will be fine. I also have a Samsung 19" that supports 1600x1200, possibly the same one as the above poster. Great monitor for the price. Link to post Share on other sites

radar37 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I dug this up from the search function. I want to get a computer that has the 1600 X 1200 so I can play 4 tables without overlap. Thing is I want it to be a laptop . Is this possible or am I just dreaming. I was hoping I could find a dell or something with a 17 or 19 inch monitor that could fit 4 tables. Anyone? Thanks.

radar37 0 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 That one looks pretty sweet Dna4ever. I don't see that one on the site anymore but I found one that if you upgrade the screen it looks like it will work. Its the Inspiron E1705 Single Core with the UXGA display with true life. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for that one? Looks like I can get this one for $1150. http://configure.us.dell.com/dellstore/con...=E1705SP1&s=dhsIt is pretty much going to be used just for poker. I'd get the one you got if its still available and better or cheaper. Link to post Share on other sites

I got this laptop, but was too cheap to fork over the extra $$ for the upgraded display. I can't get 1600X1200 on mine although I know some people can with the better display.

You never really hear anyone say how one brand sucks over another... at least with monitors.Looks like a decent price though. Link to post Share on other sites
