For those who play games on a PC with 2 monitors, are you a game on the left screen or game on the right screen person?
-
Or I suppose you could be some kind of crazy person who switches it up per game.
I assume you three-monitor people use the middle one, but I'd be interested to hear if that's the case?
... I switch it up depending on the game.

Game left, wiki on the right for help files.

I play strictly on my left screen, but I couldn't actually tell you why. The monitors are identical, and it's no more of a strain to look at one over the other for extended periods. Left just feels right to me.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Are they different in some way, so certain games look better or are easier to play on one of them? I think I could understand that more than the pure chaos of mixing it up on identical monitors.

Depends... my left monitor is an utlra-widescreen. Some games look/play great on that one. Other games feel/look better on the other monitor which isn't quite as wide, but physically has more vertical height.

Game on the left monitor. My left monitor is directly in front of my chair, though. Right monitor is portrait for browser, discord and whatever else I need at the time.
The whole setup flipped (
) when I moved my desk last week, though. -

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Not really. Sometimes it's also just what mood I'm in. The left monitor is actually a much bigger TV with higher resolution but lower refresh rate. The right one is on an arm, curved, 165hz and hdr always works instead of some of the time but only 30 inches or so
I just... Change them whenever. No real reason

It just feels left you mean.

My left monitor is placed more directly in front, while my right monitor is more angled. I generally use the left as my "primary" and the right as the "secondary", though they're identical otherwise.

Game split across both screens with the cross hair in the middle

Ok, I can kind of see that. A giant screen is going to have a much different vibe than a closer fancy curved monitor.

Here's the thing though. The monitor is only close if I want it. It's in a heavy duty arm and gets moved around a lot. The TV is further away by a significant margin because I can't afford a TV stand atm considering I also can't afford food. But I will just switch between TV and monitor for no rhyme or reason. Sometimes during the same session. Start on one, end on another

Left screen is for the chord (fucken noons won't get off it), and browser. Right is for gaming because its actually center of the desk.

I don't game frequently, and when I do it's game on the left. My right screen is a drawing cintiq and has lower resolution, plus is at an angle.

Bottom (32") is games. Top (32") is for a browser. Top left (24") is for cameras. Bottom left (15") is touchscreen for music player. Right (same make/model as top) is portrait mode for discord, steam, and system monitor. The three 32" pull double duty as work monitors during work hours.

I never really thought about it as left and right monitors, but my main monitor (30" 16:10) is centered and my secondary monitor (27" 9:16 vertical) is off to the right.

Game on the right, but I have no choice over it, I might have chosen left if my wall mounted monitor wasn't on the left.
But, the positive is that it takes up no desk space because in the left, it's just air.

And even then, you're still usually just scrolling on your phone.

Game on the right but that's because my right monitor is the good monitor. The left one is a glorified TV.

I’ve got three monitors, but of the two 28s I use the right one, which is also the Center one. The third monitor is a little 22 that mostly gets used for Element and Discord
