Rather than posting each video, here is the channel. I am wondering if this guying is just ignoring the Non Disclosure Agreement, which is generally part of BETA testing, or maybe Steam did not do a NDA.

If I had my own place I would run 3 monitors I used to do that when I ran the AV at my church. I had a pretty sweet setup back then.

That's what I'm gonna do, but the monitors I want are over $500 a piece, so the next two are gonna have to wait. Plus to be able to run BF4 at that resolution I'm gonna need a graphics upgrade-probably two of them. So another $1000 probably.

Yeah but why would you hook a PC up to a 1080p TV when you can game on a 1440p monitor (that has 5 times the pixel density)?

Nah. I want 2 more like the one k have. Dell U2713HM. 27" IPS display at 1440p. Not technically "gaming", but these days most monitors are good enough for gaming, and I haven't had any problems.
