I meant to say: there are only a few makes for the LCD panels. The rest is just framing and cosmetic designs.

I love Samsung monitors. My favorite makes in the order of preference is as follows: Samsung ViewSonic Envision Not sure if all Samsung models are created equal. The models that I like are 2243SWX and 2343BWX. I have a few of them...

I don't think that is "weird". I trade for a living. I don't get a "regular paycheck" with vacation benefit like most people. My trading stop, my income stops. How is doing things a little differently from the norm be automatically considered weird? Trading the market opening 1-2 hours...

I think what Mr. J said was he will use his laptop at home to drive 3-4 monitors, but need to mobility to bring his laptop with him on the go. It would be really cumbersome to bring your nettop, keyboard, mouse and a monitor to use in Starbucks. Bring laptops and external monitors to trips...

Good job Matcha! How're the coffee shops in Hong Kong?

I think if you can find a laptop with 2 extra video outputs, it should be able to support 2 external monitors. But from what I have used and seen, most laptops have only 1 extra video output. The laptop market is mostly for traveling business people and students. For business use, most would...

I hope this is what you want. Because it has only 2 PCIe x16 slots. Mixing PCIe x16 and PCI video cards has its challenges at times, depending on the video card makes. = = = = = = = = = = = Expansion Slots PCI Express 2.0 x16 2 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots, support ATI CrossFireX...

I think I understand what you said here: But I am totally confused with this new information: I think the issue is with the video card inside the laptop. Could be the LCD screen itself on the laptop but more likely the video card/chip.

You seem to have multiple issues/questions in this thread. Is it still on the maintenance effort or you are focusing on fixing the grainy screen? Is that resolved? What does "grainy" mean?

Do you really want to rotate the monitor 90 degree at will? Or just want to have a monitor that can go "vertical"? Because with the VESA mount (4 screws) you can mount any monitor vertically.

Perhaps a millionaire like yourself should hire someone to spell-check for you. You have misspelled "testosterone" in five different ways in the same short post. Maybe a side effect of having high testosterone.

I think your CPU chip Intel E7400 Core2 Duo, which has a Passmark score of 1906, can handle 6 monitors just fine. I used to have a box that has an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4800+ chip, Passmark score only 1319, and it drove 6 monitors for a few years with no problem. But I think that the HP...

Andy: I got 8 monitors running on my box with Win7. But my config maybe different. Here is my story: Win7, ASUS P6T MoBo. It only has 3 x PCIe x16 slots, and 2 x PCI slots, and 1 x PCIe X1 slot. I have 3 PNY 8400 GS for PCIe x16. Plug them in. No problem. 6 monitors showed up in...

This seems to be the old debate between whether traders are born or traders are made. Traders are born... according to your description, from the very first trade he/she makes... they are all money making. No down time. Consistently profitable traders from day one. Wow! I am just glad...

I just bought an Intel 40GB SSD and played with it. Installed in on one of my i7 boxes. I needed to re-install Win7 OS to use the SSD as C: and my original platter disk as data storage. My first impression: I have to say I didn't see much of benefit to me as far as speed. I did only 2...

Thanks... Americas travel wanderer! Great to see you posting often here! :)

Another consideration... I always build my trading room equipment for survivability and redundancy. Imagine this scenario: You have one of these 6-mon cards. And that's the only video card on your PC. Warranty period is just over. The card dies. You need to replace it. 1. You...

Bear in mind that these 6-mon cards are quite a bit higher priced than multiple dual cards on a per-monitor basis. 6-mon card, $500, about $80 per monitor. You can get a dual card for $40 to $50 these days. About $25 per monitor. I think the best is to try to find a box that has more...

I can share with you some of my shopping/building experience. If you want to pick up a ready-to-go box from a store (or online), there are roughly 3 classes. 1. Intel i3 processor (or AMD equivalent). About $500 - $600. This is good if you just need a basic box. Browser based trading...
