I don't understand two monitor setups for gaming. I don't know how people can stand them. I find it so distracting to have the light from a second monitor on my peripheral vision while I'm trying to focus on my game. I prefer one monitor, full screen gaming for full immersion. Not having some tab open to talk to people and check on news. Just gaming. And no this is not a thread to post your room, this is just some image I got off google. I want to discuss PC gaming.

Second monitor good for chat programs/streaming/shit like that. When I buy a new monitor I'm going to use my old one to browse Yas Forums while I wait for things in games.

I use a second monitor because it's handy for game development/web development/drawing etc. Also this

Not everyone has autism like you.

For intense games that require attention you can just disable your second monitor. Just press the button found on the monitor.
For more slow paced games such as mmos and arpgs I open streams on the second monitor to keep me company.

I'm the same way. But instead of being an austist and making a Yas Forums thread I just TURN THE OTHER MONITOR OFF.

I have two monitors because I often work from home. Whether I use the second while playing depends on what I play.
For slower paced games where I would often alt-tab to check on stuff I leave it on.
For more immersive games I turn it off.

Did you know monitors have OFF buttons, OP?

What I do is set a pure black background on the second monitor and have it not display any taskbar by default. That means when no window is displayed on it the background lighting turns off and it looks exactly like when the monitor is turned off.
