Elite: Dangerous PvE - Mobius

I been running 4 screens for a couple of years . Now this been on for 24Hr/ 365days so now some screens die out
and I get the feeling this will cost me more then I want to spend on screens.


I need a fast screen middle placed (Im not a fan of widescreens as they are so small) with small bezels (corners) so I can use other screens on both side's

Best option would be a single huge screen still with small bezels fast ofc

advice ?

What do you mean by die out? screen fade or intermittent failure?

I don't know about where you live but if they start dying within a year it should be a warranty issue.
I have 3 probably now going on at least 6 years old samsung and they are still "fine".

as for new features in recent screens I'm both intrigued by g-sync but over all more interested in a super wide singe screen in the 21:9 format to replace my triple screen setup.
But I'm also trying to hold out for a VR headset.

This!

I'm going to have to learn how to use Voice Attack.

But I still don't see the need for ultra wide or 2 or 3 screen setups when using Track-IR.
Bigger is better though, so I do love my 32" 2560x1440 Acer ($400).

Whenever I see videos of E D with 3 screens on YouTube the side screens stretch the image so you end up with oval planets.

Yeah I freaking hate that and that's why I normally only use the center screen.
But now we have these 21:9 34" screens and they do not stretch in this way (when the game supports it) like most newer games do like ED does.https://youtu.be/YAjrQaFAR2w

Yes it does stretch a bit on the sides but nowhere as much as with 5760x1080p where you pretty much end up with only another 1/5 of screen real estate on your left/right screens stretched to fit.

Sure I want to get VR next year but this screen http://www.samsung.com/levant/consumer/ ... E790CNS/ZN is looking mighty tempting...

No they are old and used for work

Permanently or in certain circumstances? no software changes/drivers etc? Cables checked?

Is the monitor showing signs of power? (LED's etc) if no power it could be a cap blown but this would be a permanent failure, can be easy to solve if you have a soldering iron and can order the replacement cap.
