If you have the extra money, it is soooo worth it. Massively increases productivity.
I'd go with 4 monitor stand in a 1 over 3 setup

Top monitor: Secondary Gaming (Maps, Stats, etc) or looking up guides

Bottom Center: Primary Gaming (Actual Game)

Other monitors: Web Browsing and streaming Sports games*

That would likely mean that I'd need more RAM and a beefier GPU since those are my hobbies.

I don't really have an interest in multi monitor setups because I don't consider myself hardcore like those people that get those crazy setups from sponsorship deals because they are a bunch sell out shills. I also don't have much of an interest in pro gaming because I consider gaming as more of a hobby than a career option and because it would not look good on a resume (I'm applying more for a job dealing with computer engineering.) Personally, multi monitors are silly because it will jack up the costs, I have no interest in using skype, and if I wanted to listen to music or youtube video, I'd stop the game. Besides, I still need to get a new desk if I wanted one of those multi monitor setups.

For a laptop: http://gaming.msi.com/products/notebook/gt-series?id=3461

That looks like a good choice for a desktop caliber laptop I can use on the go though I don't know where to buy that version of the Titan


*The reason for Streaming Sports is either because the game isn't being broadcast on TV* or I don't feel like paying for what will be a very disappointing PPV (Like the Mayweather vs Berto fight. $70? Get that **** outta here.)


**No, I will not get DirecTV. The reason is because **** DirecTV since their dish will crap out as soon as it starts raining. Because I live in Ohio (which already has a lot of jokes about the weather), keeping the signal will be impossible as soon as the week stops being sunny

Being an owner of a Wii U and PS4, the only reason I'd want a better gaming PC would be to play the Smash Bros. games on-line. Yeah, Tribes : Ascend looks interesting but I prefer controllers for First Person Shooters having come of age during the N64 era with great FPS like Turok Rage Wars and Perfect Dark.
