Looking for general advice from people on this. I spoke to Tyla about it, and he seems to like it a lot. I've got 1x DVI output and 1x VGA output on my 9800XT, and I've currently got a Hercules ProphetView 920Pro DVI connected to the DVI port.
First thing I'm wondering is, if I get myself another 17" TFT, is it gonna look awful because it won't be the same as my current one? There is a possibility I might be able to steal my bro's monitor (the non-DVI version of mine), but he's not keen.

Whenever anyone mentions multiple monitors, I always think of this guy: [URL]http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/images/flightsimulatorbig.jpg[/URL]
It's not going to look asthetically as good as having two of the same monitor type side by side, but if you need additional screen real-estate then it's a good solution.

Yeah, e.g. if they're at slightly different heights or one screen is a few mm taller than the other, etc.

I think he's more bothered about the monitors not actually looking the same.
My 6800 has one of each, but came with an adaptor so I could convert the VGA into a second DVI socket. Maybe you can find one of these?
