    For gaming it will be complete balls. For normal use I personally can do just fine with different size screens, but its a personal preference and up to you.

    Obviously it varies from person to person, but I just started to automatically ignore the bezels after one gaming session. I tried the bezel correction that Eyefinity has, but having the image appear to bass behind the bezel rather than jumping to the next screen looked worse to me.

    How do you get that framerate on max with that CPU :|

    It would work for not gaming...

    I enjoy almost all games on tripe screen, exception being Minecraft. The extra 2 screens are just overly stretched and aren't helpful at all.

    I really want to get back to the triple screen experience, been quite some time. And now that I have a card that easily handles it..

    I don't really mind the warped screen in MC, but having the chat window and minimap allllll the way over in those corners sucks.

    Only get ~10,000 PPD on a 2GB card and a 3.4 GHz CPU when folding, did I do something wrong?

    EDIT: Fixed.

    Yeah, well, it looked like crap. The color/contrast/whatever was way off and it's apparently only 30FPS. And because it's a TV it was noticeably laggier compared to the two screens. I did this over HDMI instead of using the VGA port BTW.

    I tried Minecraft and it worked okay, but it would have been so much better if I just had another normal 20 inch 1600x900 but another issue is desk space.. 2 screens barely fit onto one of the pieces of glass on my desk. (I guess if I had a third screen I could set them up around the center/corner of my desk.)

    My monitor apparently is at the end of it's life. (refresh rate is messed up bad)

    If my parents say they'll buy a new monitor, I will make it permanently glitched, but for now I am gonna take advantage of the way VGA plugs in, and leave my screen a bloodred color.

    Why an iMac and a desktop?

    Speaking of Macs, we have an older Mac Pro in our basement. (Dual PowerPC CPUs.) Does anyone have any idea what useful thing it could be used for?

    Oh. Okay?

    I wonder how hard it would be to get Linux onto our Mac Pro..

    I looked into getting it onto my iBook G4 but I gave up. I remember I had a Linux bootable disk I used for awhile on the G3 I had a long time ago.

    I'm pretty sure it's a G4. Looks like this:

    GIMME. I dunno what I would do with it, I have an FM1 CPU/board..

    EDIT: Does it come with a CPU?
