Who needs a kitchen anyway, as long as there is a beer fridge?I've been making that argument for a while.But the kitchen is built into the building, so that comes under body corporate, and they won't budge. And don't mention the beer fridge, it's anorexic at the moment.

Personally I'd go up to 27inch instead of the 23inch for triples https://www.pccasegear.com/products/43412/aoc-c27g1-27in-curved-full-hd-144hz-freesync-va-gaming-monitor to have more real estate and wrap around further. It's just my opinion and depends on how much room you have, I'd rather have one large curve or three big screens.Edit, having said all that, the high refresh curved 23's would be nice « Last Edit: September 18, 2018, 05:37:50 PM by buellersdayoff » Logged Phil.8 RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 4158 Karma: 62 Δ8 Re: VR - exciting times ahead... « Reply #20 on: September 18, 2018, 07:26:09 PM » That is a not bad price either, never really seen a curved one up close and wonder how 3 would be together Editlooked up some pic and looks awesome Logged The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older Guybrush Threepwood Hero Member Posts: 2133 Karma: 69 Re: VR - exciting times ahead... « Reply #21 on: September 18, 2018, 09:28:31 PM » I think it's only 1080p Logged rooshooter RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 2887 Karma: 52 Re: VR - exciting times ahead... « Reply #22 on: September 19, 2018, 09:05:21 AM » Quote from: Phil.8 on September 18, 2018, 07:26:09 PMThat is a not bad price either, never really seen a curved one up close and wonder how 3 would be together Editlooked up some pic and looks awesomeReview of Triple 35inch curved monitors.https://www.isrtv.com/reviews/benq-xr3501-curved-ultra-wide-triple-gaming-monitor-review/ Logged social media is the tobacco of this century Bird Administrator Hero Member Posts: 2324 Karma: -666 Ysu Re: VR - exciting times ahead... « Reply #23 on: September 19, 2018, 10:08:48 AM » Quote from: rooshooter on September 19, 2018, 09:05:21 AMQuote from: Phil.8 on September 18, 2018, 07:26:09 PMThat is a not bad price either, never really seen a curved one up close and wonder how 3 would be together Editlooked up some pic and looks awesomeReview of Triple 35inch curved monitors.https://www.isrtv.com/reviews/benq-xr3501-curved-ultra-wide-triple-gaming-monitor-review/From the pictures in the article it looks like they've got serious distortion issues on that triple setup. Can that be dialled out I wonder...? That bad perspectivic distortion was always one of my main gripes with this setup, btw. The other is the bezels.

In the past when I used triples, it was a real problem for me. I haven't ever managed to get it right.

I went through forums to get an idea about it. Plenty of diy mods to make it more comfortable...there are even guys wanting to sell and going back to the rift. Guess it needs more time. I had StarVR on my radar as well, but the Starbreeze side of it is sorting out financial issues at the moment...well, see how they go with it and what ACER is doing. Guess this one needs times as well.So I just ordered 3 curved 27" screens to replace my 24" ones.A major concern in regard to these VR goggles is the climate up here in Brissie...so it looks like I'll stick with monitors for some more time.
