Multi-Monitor Setup Diagram

Fantazmic2 · 21-October-03, 04:25 PM

I was killing time for a few and decided to make this Diagram of my Multi-Monitor setup which uses a KVM Switch.

Computer 1 and Computer 2 each have there own dedicated monitor and share the Third monitor with my Mini-Itx and Laptop. All four computers share the same keyboard and mouse.

Got a place for another monitor?

Fantazmic2 · 21-October-03, 04:49 PM

If it is black and 17"...I always have room...

KayinStorm · 21-October-03, 04:52 PM

17", though will probably be ultramarine blue by then....

vladimir · 21-October-03, 04:59 PM

i have a kvm switch, but for sum reason the video gets destored wen i use it

Fantazmic2 · 21-October-03, 05:12 PM

Clown, you have to get a higher quality of KWM switch (look for what the maximum monitor resolution and refresh rates are for the KVM).

If you go past that, then the video goes wacko...also some of the cheap ones if does not matter what resolution/refresh rates you are using.

Kayin...Blue???? Blue is always good! I would have to do some adjusting of my setup, which is always fun

but, i've done it so many times, what's one more?

KayinStorm · 21-October-03, 05:15 PM

well, the direct-die rig is all clear/all blue, depending on lights, so blue was the obvious choice...

Fantazmic2 · 21-October-03, 05:21 PM

did you dye it or paint it? I have another monitor in storage that I was thinking about dying black...to match my setup. Maybe one day I'll get around to doing it.

KayinStorm · 21-October-03, 05:22 PM

gonna paint, automotive spray paint

Joose · 21-October-03, 05:48 PM

nice diag there Taz...

I've got 30 servers running off of two 15" LCD's, two keyboards and two mice....

but that's for work...and the KVM cost $1500 each (4 of them)

[EDIT] PLUS cables...at $60.00 each...glad I wasn't paying

KayinStorm · 21-October-03, 06:00 PM

yeah, the blue would be a bit of a change...

but, it'll go with the overall rave theme...

Fantazmic2 · 21-October-03, 06:05 PM

pimp_joose...Thanks

For handling servers, you cannot go wrong with them.

I would like to get a larger (6-8) port KVM Switch for future expansion...but they are so expensive. Sara also has a two port that controls her Desktop and Laptop.

vladimir · 21-October-03, 06:12 PM

i got it for free, i cant complain LOL

But, but, but...my mind's been in the gutter so long I don't think I can find my way out, besides I like it here.

Honestly, if you think thats too much I can tone it down a bit.
