The Dells... Why the 11 instead of 13? You don't use 10bit color when gaming, and the 13 is much better in other regards. And why 2 of them instead of 1 or 3 if it's only for gaming? Eyefinity is useless with two monitors.


Actually, one of the big advantages of 10bit colour in gaming is less colour banding.
It's more evident in older games such as Homeworld 2 where the maps background picture doesn't have a smooth colour grading on 8bit or lower panels, is it worth the expense of a 10bit panel? That's up to the individual.

As for Eyefinity, some games work well with just 2 monitors like Supreme Commander or Civilization, it's the games where you have a crosshair smack dab in the middle of the bezels that are useless. :P

I would hazard a guess it's not for gaming primarily, he/she has a graphics tablet and the panels to suit.

Know the feeling. I've been told that game pics I posted weren't actually from my rig, but instead "bullshots" and that the rig I claim to own is also BS. 

In any event, good stuff you're working with there (as I see much of the PC brethren in here have covered). 

Well. You don't have anything to prove IMHO.
But I've also been in a similar situation, bunch of print screens of my hardware was enough though.

I'm assuming it's jelousy as they aren't part of the PC gaming master race. :P
