To load Bo barb of coarse


Bo barb.


You could do that with 1 PC though, although its a bit more annoying.

bo barb needs to be on second computer as backup in the case of crashes, it’s absolutely critical to his ability to stay alive on “hardcore”

Curious, whats the purpose of the second PC?


It's my media/streaming machine.
You don't need more than 1 pc to load main and BO barb.

Don't listen to anything those users ever post.

Yes, I like to run 3 instances on 3 screens. Picked up a bunch of cheap monitors on a Black Friday sale years ago. Mostly use the extra accounts as fillers so I can get P3 drops and XP when I feel like playing alone, though I did make one of them a horker this season to help me with chronicle and horking sunders in TZ games.

My PC is pretty outdated because I only play old games. But 3 instances of D2R still run fine. I set the filler accounts to 720p windowed mode w/ 30 fps cap to save resources.

2x big ultrawide monitors > 3x normal ones IMO. I run it in 4x hyperv VMs via GPU passthrough but I don't recommend that part, hyperv is trash. There a few apps out there that let you share mouse/keyboard across multiple PCs too, which depends on if you need support for OS other than Windows.

Is that the awkward Gen z stare or the maladjusted millennial horndog? Are you trying to make friends or are you virtue signalling your mystic eroticism? Sending you a friend request

Yes. 3 screens on main PC and 1 on secondary PC. Control it all with the same mouse and keyboard.

More than one way it's kind of looking like the same direction for your setup and mine. I'm behind on a second PC and my usual setup is two monitors but I can take one of my TVs or an old 24" 60hz monitor atm.
It's still a work in progress tho. I'll get a Pic later.
Oh and the file cabinet looks like mine, just mine is smaller. Desk itself has the similar colors but mine is just enough for two 27", 110cm long. I do use a table on the side as a workspace kind of thing.

Right, I don't need to write all the details. I'll get a good picture of it. It's a bit messy from a few projects that I have an easy time starting but not finish hehe.

ive experimented with 3 monitors. I dont like having to look left or right all the time though. it stiffs up the neck.

Ive also experimented with oled tv's with 120hz and its great for gaming and entertainment on a 42 or 48 or 55 oled for the price of a smaller oled monitor 27-34..

right now i have a 4k 48" lg b5 120hz + 4k 28" asus vg series ips monitor 120hz for 2nd monitor.
