I use one 1080P 165Hz monitor. Also an IBM Model M! Who needs fancy modern switches when you have buckling spring switches? If I may ask, how have you adapted it to USB? I have heard that PS/2 to USB converters can sometimes miss keypresses/have other issues. How do multiple keypresses at once do with it? I have never had the pleasure of owning a Model M, though I do have one mechanical AT keyboard that can use both AT or XT signaling.

I’ve used to have two monitors and 2m wide desk.
One side for sim-racing and other one for default desktop games.

One is enough for me, for my alt-tabbing is very quick.

Table of clutter next to your bed. I’d atleast scoot the monitor that’s hanging over the edge, away from my sleeping area, if you have no where else for a desk etc.

5… I’d use more if I could get another video output, but I’d need a new GPU for that.
Are you setting up a communication station to outer space? 😅

1.5– one monitor (old 1080p 60hz) on a really nice articulating arm and one old tablet that I use as a second monitor (primarily as a dedicated calendar). I wouldn’t change a thing!
I’ve got the same keyboard as you OP and it’s my favorite. 30+ years old and still running flawlessly. I’ve got all the numpad keys macro’d out with a convenient disable switch if I actually need to use the numpad for numbers.
I run my laptop with 2 extra monitors, one of which is an 8 year old android tablet running spacedesk. It’s great

As many as you have here. Two computers. 2 monitors on one and 2 on the other. Used for different things at the same time.

Niice OP, can you share the central desktop wallpaper?

Two, same model though. Can’t stand multiple monitors of all different models and sizes

One 1440p/144hz is enough for me

4 also. It’s overkill tbh, but I’ve got em so may as well use em right?

I’ve currently got three, a 32″ 1440p 16:9 as my main, a 34″ 1440p 21:9 above it, and a 5″ 4K (set to 1080p) to the left of my main.
Ik the 5″ is ridiculous, it’s an Atomos Shinobi, meant to be mounted on top of cameras, I do still use it for that, but when I’m not out filming I like to use it for displaying Tidal or OBS. I’ll eventually swap it out for something a little bigger, maybe a CRT (though I doubt I’ll get away with that due to where my speakers have to be).

this might be the ugliest setup lol

1 Ultrawide.
I also have one lil guy that I’m using as a sensor panel, and a $100 backup boi for when I actually need to have 2 screens (as in, I’m testing rendering technology on multiple displays or something, where partitioning one screen doesn’t work).

I use one that gives me more cm2 display surface than all of those combined 😉

I miss CRTs.
A weird thought struck, though, that it’s sort of weird that as the “ass” of our monitors and TV’s got smaller, it became fashionable for women to get a bigger ass.

I have 5 and I have space for more.

2 monitors on right look unnecessary.
