I also purchased Monitor Desk Stand Ergotron DS100 Quad
and I plan initially to use only 4 monitors
What do you advise me to continue to monitor samsung monitor ... or buy 3 monitor Asus PA238Q
The Asus seem to be native DP which is good. But I don't know how good they are and if they are compatible with your stand....I don't know a lot about monitors other than I love mine
You can't use 4 of the Samsung you have as that doesn't support DP and if you want to use more than 2 non-DP monitors you need active adapters costing around $100 each....so get monitors with native DP .
You can still use your Samsung and 3 new ones if they fit together nicely, compatibility is no issue, you just need an adapter for the Samsung.
If the money is no issue, I find it always nicer to have identical monitors, but as you already have one, that is rather luxury than necessity....
You only need active adapters if they are not native DP (DisplayPort)! If they are, you are fine...
I wouldn't play around with anything else than DP (except for the one monitor you have, that is).
for 4 monitor Samsung S24A450MW i need 2 of these to get an optimal configuration ?
Accell B087B-003J UltraAV miniDisplayPort / DVI-D Dual-Link Adapter
: Debole:
for 6 monitor, 4 of this ?
No, for some obscure reason you need 3 for 4 monitors...and 5 for 6 monitors.
But trust me, you are very likely to run into trouble with any configuration where more than one monitor is not native DP.....at least that is my experience.
Also you wouldn't save a lot if you had to buy 5*$30 adapters to keep the monitor you have as opposed to replacing that....
hi Mike,
hi vvhg,
Dell monitors U2412M 3 + 1 Samsung S24A450MW
I ask you could be a solution?
I have problems changing the brand and image resolution monitor (Dell+Samsung)?
my support is for 4 monitor
Ergotron DS100 Quad Monitor Desk Stand.
I would love to have this but it costs too much
Monitor TFT 23" wide SyncMaster MD230X6 (8 ms)
SAMSUNG
In general the Dell U2412M looks fine to me, but I cannot say anything about quality (don't forget: viewing angles) or price....
I also don't know if the Dell and your Samsung will fit onto that stand together as their dimensions are slightly different.
