The ideal dual monitor stand from Visidec.

Friday, July 22nd, 2011

If you’ve ever wanted to get a dual monitor stand, then now’s the time. Monitor prices are down and having two monitors has never been more efficent. If you need more windows open for work, dual screen games or just simply want to select a new song from itunes then having two monitors makes your life that much easier, no more of this alt + tabbing, just a simple swipe of your mouse to your other screen and you’re there! I reccomend you look into a Visidec.

VISIDEC Freestanding Double LCD Monitor Stand (VFS-DH)

The VISIDEC family, consisting of Focus, Traveller and Freestanding Ranges, are contemporary designed mounts for LCD displays for home and office applications up to 24 or 11kg/25.3lbs. VISIDEC offers great value in terms of price and functionality, award-winning design, and ease of installation.

You think that this dual screen is an awesome idea, but you have one issue, you’re outputting from a laptop, or computer that only has one output! But Matrox has thought of that for you, providing you with multi monitor support from one output.  You’ll be looking at purchasing the Matrox Dualhead2go.If you need to read more about it there is a blog written on the triplehead2go, which is essentially the same thing, just with one more output.

Dual the screens!

Add multiple monitor support to your laptop or computer with Matrox

Thursday, July 21st, 2011

Have you ever heard of the Maxtrox triplehead2go? If not, then prepare to have your mind blown. The Matrox offers the ultimate surround graphics experience for professionals and gaming enthusiasts alike. This versatile new product enables users looking to add three digital monitors to their workstation, desktop computer or notebook with a maximum resolution of up to 3840×1024 (triple 1280×1024). Coming in two forms, analog or digital version to cover all your video needs.

How it Works—A Look Inside the Box

The “magic” of making one display into three happens inside the TripleHead2Go box. The TripleHead2Go takes advantage of the existing graphics processor unit (GPU) within your computer.

tech diagram

  • Your system GPU renders an ultra-wide image into its frame buffer.
  • TripleHead2Go uses Matrox patent-pending technology to divide the display information into three display outputs.
  • These signals are then passed through the three monitor connectors (either standard digital (DVI) or analog (VGA), depending on the version of the product) and to the TripleHead2Go box.
  • No pixels are added, dropped, scaled, or otherwise changed in this process. TripleHead2Go “magic” preserves all the on-screen information provided by the original monitor signal.

Example of Connecting a Laptop
Display 1 is connected to TripleHead2Go, while Display 2 represents the laptop. Display 1 is treated as a single display three times as wide as a typical display. This is output to your three additional monitors.

TripleHead2Go Digital Edition doesn’t require opening a computer, inserting parts into it, or replacing any hardware. This solution uses the existing hardware of a system for 2D, 3D, and video acceleration. This means no voided warranties-an important consideration in a corporate rollout. The Matrox triplehead2go can also be used as a splitter for screens, projecting the same image onto all 3 screens, or using the simple software that comes with the triplehead2go to run 3 seperate monitors.

Features..

  • Run three independent monitors from your notebook or desktop computer even if that system only supports a single monitor output.
  • A triple monitor setup lets you organize your workspace more efficiently, multi-task more comfortably and make fewer errors
  • Open a different application on each monitor or stretch one application across three monitors for the ultimate in Surround Graphics
  • Experience Surround Gaming by expanding supported 3D games across three monitors; achieve a much wider in-game field of view
  • Uses your system’s existing graphics card to deliver a stable platform for office, 3D design, and multimedia applications
  • Quick and easy to install; there’s no need to open the computer case or insert components
  • External device that won’t void your system warranty
  • Includes Matrox PowerDesk software for Windows to manage message pop-ups and window positioning
  • Includes GXM Control Panel for Mac
  • PC and Mac compatible

See more. Do more. Be more productive.

Easy to use, simple to install, and takes advantage of your existing system. With TripleHead2Go, you’ll benefit from the increased real estate to see more of your work, or more of your game. See more information at the same time, and enjoy more productivity.

Triple Monitor Setup – The Ultimate Geek Fantasy

Wednesday, August 18th, 2010

Any real geeks knows, the bigger the screen – the better the experience!

Dual and triple monitor setups are fast becoming a much sort after solution in countless work places. (I run dual screens at warcom)!

They can also be setup for some ‘seriously awesome’ racing sim cockpit setups!

Here’s an example of what a Triple screen Rfactor can do! Check this Youtube video out:

To run such a setup you need to pickup a few things.

Matrox Triple head2go – An AMAZING bit of kit that will allow you to display the image across the 3 monitor screens. They are worth every penny! Not only is Rfactor supported, but countless other racing games are also supported as well as flight simulators! (link: Supported games)

Check out the Matrox TripleHead2go on Warcom.

Logitech G27 steering wheel – The ULTIMATE racing sim wheel. It has a H shifter, F1 style paddle shifters realistic pedal and Rpm shift lights.. The list keeps going on (Hand stiched leather, dual force feedback motors etc).

Both items are available online in our store. If you get one set up PLEASE email through some photos!

We would LOVE to see some in action!

Cheers,
Galaxy!

Matrox DualHead2Go & TripleHead2Go – Increasing Your Productivity!

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

So as they say, the bigger the better and in this case, I couldn’t agree more!

Really – how can you go wrong, with two, or three monitors!

It’s a proven fact that productivity levels increase by around 50% (according to info I’ve read on the internet (so it must be true?!). Staff will have more room, slash, screen real estate, for creative freedom, and best of all, they -should- hopefully be much more organised!

But don’t take my word for it, here’s just a few case studies from Matrox users!
