SCF Home Setup

My name is Jean, i live in Brazil and i’m a professional CS:GO player and this is my current setup! :D

My Fav Place to work and relax

My name is George. This is where I work when at home, watch movies, play games and relax.
For those wondering what do I “need” 5 monitors, etc: I only need energy (oxygen and food). I like having these stuff and once you can afford something the reason above is good enough.

I am a full time web developer and part time Daily Fantasy Sports Player.
For those of you still using the standard Apple keyboard and mouse… I would highly recommend going mechanical and changing your mouse as well. it makes a world of a difference.

Where did you get those lamps dude? Or even, do you know what they’re referred to as? I’ve been looking everywhere for something similar but am having no luck..

Both lamps are from Ikea:

Matt,
Would you say the quality of the Ultrasharp is up to par with the iMac’s screen? I’m looking at getting a U2311H to hook up to my MacBook Pro, and I’m curious as to if the screen quality is as good as an Apple monitor.
Nice setup!
-Noah.

Hi Noah:
The Dell is a matte screen versus the glossy of Apple, so it’s tough to compare because each has a different output. Depending on your line of work and what you’re gonna be using the monitor mostly for, either one is a good decision. I think you’ll be just fine with the U2311.
Thanks!

What do you use to be able to support 2 external monitors? An Apple dual-link DVI dongle?
Matt Brown March 16, 2011
The laptop isn’t connected to the monitors. The iMac is using a standard DVI out to the monitor on the left.

Ahh I should noticed from the trim that it was an iMac. Thanks!
