VG248QE 24"

I bought it more for gaming though like 4 years ago when the 144hz and 1ms refresh rate monitors came out - was great for FPS

Other peoples monitor specs will not help you unless your PC (or mac) is capable of of rendering video at those resolutions. Your video card will pretty much dictate what you can use.

I currently use 2- 22" monitors Plan on going back to 3 monitors in a couple months (waiting on $$$ and pricing)

I have One add-in card PCIE NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 [Display adapter] and one
Intel(R) HD Graphics 4600 [Display adapter- not in use]. I have room for at least 4 monitors. But prefer 3.
My current monitors
DELL SE2216H [Monitor] (21.7"vis, ) using 1920X1090 HDMI input on Monitor 1
DELL SE2216H [Monitor] (21.7"vis, ) using 1920X1090 VGA input on Monitor 2

My eyes can't tell the difference.

The newer large screen monitors are pretty sweet similar to what grock and mattryder have. My cousin has one that is 49 inches. If I could afford it I would go with that :). Will have to check out the prices on the 29 inch models lol

I have dual 27 inch monitors. I do not play more than four games at the same time, so that's more than enough for me. However, when playing tournaments, I like to have the tournament lobby open as well. So the extra monitor comes in handy.

And I can have my favorite forum (Cardschat) on one monitor, while playing on the other.

I have an HDMI hooked up my 55 inch TV and extend my laptop monitor so I can watch Twitch (usually a poker stream) on the other.

Hello to all! I am very interested in what kind of monitor you have for playing poker? The size? Number of monitors?

Maybe you have a specific positive experience in using a particular monitor. Share the model.


It's not small and not big monitor! One monitor is good for play for me!:):icon_joke

The size of monitor/screen must vary with that distance to you. The angles your eyes move must be narrow in a wide field in order to envolve the whole visual field at a glance. Either way, you should feel comfortable visually in the position where you intend to work in the game.
I, mostly use my MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) and always find a comfortable place to work my Hold'em, like a beach style chair.

Best of Lucky.

I play on only one monitor but I intend to buy another one in the near future, I believe it greatly facilitates the gameplay.

As a monitor I use a large TV SAMSUNG which is connected to a computer via HDMI. I also plan to buy a separate smaller monitor for additional use when playing poker

I currently use a 20 " monitor and play 2 -3 games very often. Sometimes I just play 1 so I can focus better. I want a bigger monitor because the tables are kinda small on this one when playing multiple games. I`m trying out a 32 " monitor and I like the bigger size better. A 40 " monitor is likely as large as I`ll go.

I'm wanting to change from my 2x 24" screen setup to having just one larger curved monitor (and with maybe one of the 24's placed vertically to one side).

Contemplating a Dell Ultrasharp 34" ... or a Dell Ultrasharp 38". I'm wondering if the 38" will feel too large :confused:
Anyone playing on either of these two monitors (or something similar)?

The matrix of my screen is 8 centimeters on the right vertically dead. So I reduced the screen resolution, moved it to the left and got a microscope)
