if you're going to multi-table, its probably in your best interest to get at least a 24" monitor, or two 20" monitors dual linked. It just all depends on how much you are willing to spend.

i 6 table usually, right now i do it on my 17" laptop screen which has some overlap and is not the best setup obv.

not sure on the 24" monitors, but it isn't the size that matters rather the resolution, 1600X1200 is needed for 4 full sized tables. Lots of good dell, samsung monitors in the 20" range are 1600X1200 and pretty cheap.

the size matters some also doesnt it?? you are going to have more space on a 1900x1200 24" than a 1900x1200 17" arent you or are the tables just going to be larger on the 24"?

short answer:

-get 20" or 24" monitors that are 1600x1200 or 1920x1200.

-if you want to play a heap of tables, your cheapest option that will give you the best result will be a series of 20" monitors (1 = 4 tables, 2 = 8 tables, 3 = 12 tables etc.).


some other options:
-get a 30" monitor (2560 x 1600), turn it to portrait (you'll need a special stand or something) and play 8 tables without resizing.

-get a series of 20" monitors (1600 x 1200) and downgrade the resolution on each one to 800x600, and play one table per monitor.
