I did have a quick search around the Forum to see if there was a similar thread available for this purpose, however i wasn't able to find one, so i thought i would start one :)

If you have a camera, then take some pictures of the area that you work at :)

Here is mine:

Hey, that's an awesome setup you got there?
I take it that the keyboard's from Alienware.

Can you specify you rig config?

I have 2 screens. lazy to post 8-)
 
Guys can someone please answer these questions those of you who have more than 1 screens ?

What are the advantages of adding or having more than 1 screens ?
How do you add them to your PC ?
How do you switch views or operate both of them from same CPU ?
 
I think the advantage is obvious. I use three 24" samsung LED screens, and they give me a HUGE amount of screen real estate while I'm working. Also with my 3d vision surround setup I can play games in panoramic mode over all 3 of them. This gives you realistic peripheral vision on the sides.

To answer your question on how to add them to your PC: For 2 monitors all you need is a graphics card that has dual outputs. Windows has easy setup for dual monitors.

For 3 screens you either need a modern ATI card that does 3 screens, or TWO nvidia geforce cards in SLI. It depends on what you want to do with the computer.

These newer cards create one large desktop extended over all 3 screens. Alternatively you can mirror screens, etc. You can have up to 6 screens on one ATI card. They make a 6 output card called the Eyefinity 6. Pretty neat stuff.

I'll take a pic or video later today when I'm not so busy.

My setup is:

cooler master HAF 932, and my other machine is in an Antec 1200
Asus sabertooth x58 mobo
core i7 950 at approx 3.6Ghz - 8 virtual cores
12GB corsair dominator triple channel - OC'd
2 x EVGA GTX 570 in SLI - also OC'd
intel x25-m ssd's
2 x raptor 10k 150gb's
2 x 2TB WD hdd's
1 x external seagate 1TB hd
g19 keyboard & a black widow mechanical keyboard for work.
several different mice depending on what i'm doing. logitech & razer
3 x samsung syncmaster 24" screens. 1 x 42" LCD for some other stuff I do.

Currently building another machine that is very similar but with dual HD 6950's (unlocked to 6970's). I might end up selling it, but I just wanted to test crossfire vs. SLI performance. Putting this one in a Corsair obsidian 800d case with watercooling. I may end up going sandy bridge for this. Not sure yet. I have 3 LG screens I used to use that I'll use with this machine.
