I just read a few reviews about numerous ones. It seems every review I read says they're good.
 
Here is my desk in my grad student office.
2009 Mac Pro 2.93 GHz Octo 16GB RAM 2.6TB RAID5
2x 24" Apple LED Displays

*sorry for poor photo, from iPhone

That wallpaper is funny as hell! I just had to Google it and have it.

Here is the link for anyone else who wants it.
 
Unless you just want to display static information, like some tables, iTunes, or chats, you don't want to use these things.
Playing videos, even in a very small window is not possible and even moving windows around lags like hell.

As all of them use the same technology, it does not matter which one you buy, all of them are pretty much the same.
They cost about 100€ here in Europe, but they are definitely not worth it!

The only thing that might not lag would be that thing that EVGA made, its basically an external video card... runs on expresscard slot. should work fine with the mbps...
 
Here you go, a little snapshot of my work environment....
Oddly the desk is empty right now, usually it's full of junk! :rolleyes:



On occasions the MacPro sounds like a wind tunnel as it'll try it's hardest to cool down it's video cards... Would be nice if ATI can create cooler running graphics cards... Hmmm, I wonder would it be quieter if I add a forth display? :rolleyes:

Just wondering, why do you have a thing to piss in sitting on your shelf?? :confused::eek:
for the impaired, top shelf, next to the right ACD, in front of the coffee cup

First gen Macbook Pro's came with DVI :)

Duh, I knew that. I meant to put that, just thinking about the newer ones. Same signal/output means though so :p

You should try the 4870. I never heard a noise from that card.
