Okay guys! Here is my battlestation, I'm calling it the TIE Fighter, but secretly I'm working with the Rebel Alliance to restore peace in the galaxy (Don't tell this to the Emperor)

I thought for a second that you had forgotten to hide a game of solitaire (bottom right screen). But on closer inspection it is volume .... or appears to be, one can never tell at this resolution

The only game I play on a computer is the game of speculation!

I trade where ever I go!

I use an Android phone with an OTG cable. I plugged the USB dongle for the mouse into it and I get mouse control on my phone.

Hey guys, here's my setup. I started out with 6 x NEC EX231Wp 23" monitors then I added a Samsung curved 48" 4k TV (UN48JU7500).
I was going to get rid of few of the monitors, but you know how it is, you can never have too many screens. The TV lines up nicely at 47.5" diag. with the 23" monitors. I managed to wrap them around the desk using 2 4x4 vesa mounts that clip to the side of the desk and the TV uses it's own stand.

yeah UHD = 4k . This along the lines of what i'm talking about


https://www.philips.com.au/c-p/BDM4350UC_75/brilliance-4k-ultra-hd-lcd-display


Displayport connections a bonus , my 6 monitor eyefinity GPU has 4 displayport outputs

I highly recommend to buy a TV with a low input lag.

I have a Samsung 4K 55" 7000 series which has something about 20ms. It one of the faster ones, but it's till not nice to use like a real computer monitor. So if you find something with around 10ms you will be happy with it.
Also make sure, you can connect the TV throug display port or HDMI 2.0. For HDMI 2.0 you need a nvidia graphics gard like the GTX 960 or newer. I also know, that the AMD RX570 or newer support HDMI2.0 for sure.
This is important, because only HDMI2.0 provides 4k@ 60HZ. And there are not a lot of TV's with displayport anyways.

Looks awesome. I want to do what you did, except I have 27" monitors, so would need a 60"

Ive actually never seen a TV with displayport yet , I actually think TVs make pretty ordinary long term trading monitors ..

Just a reminder to those posting their setups, remember to include the FIO logo somewhere in your photo.
