I'm finally going to step into the world of a triple monitor setup and here it is again, my third Asus PB278Q 27-inch display. This is insane for several reasons. Number one, like I said, triple monitors have been a game-changer for me, and this will be the first time I've actually had three of these in my workspace. I've had moments before where dual monitors just weren't enough, especially when it comes to balancing work between Photoshop, phonica 10, web browsing, social media, and web design. With one monitor showing my CSS modifications on one side, a real-time preview of my website on another, and whatever else is needed on the third, that's just what I'm going to get into.

I have to thank Mag for making this all possible. Mag, your support means the world to me. Seriously, you've saved my life more than once with your expertise and guidance. This triple monitor setup is a dream come true, and I'm excited to dive in and explore its benefits. So, let's get on with it – let's unbox the Asus PB278Q display for the third time.

This is the first time I've ever done a third unboxing of the same exact product, and I figured my audience would appreciate it because this is a rare moment for me. As I open up the box, I can see that everything is included: an HDMI cable, a DVI cable, and a display port cable. But what caught my attention was the mini display port to display port cable – which, as it turns out, is basically geometrically identical to Thunderbolt, making it compatible with my Mac Pro from 2013.

I also got an audio cable because this monitor has built-in speakers, but honestly, they're not worth using. The built-in speakers are more of a backup solution than anything else. You also get a cable management clip that goes in the back and a power cable – both of which are definitely required for setting up the display. There's also the stand, which has a nice weight to it and allows for pivot functionality. It lets you sit the monitor there and pivot it in place, which is really nice.

The best part of the unboxing, of course, is the monitor itself – my third Asus PB278Q. I have to carefully remove it from its packaging, as always makes me nervous. But once I flip it around and put it on my desk, it's secure and ready to go. Now that it's finally here, I'm excited to dive in and explore all the benefits this triple monitor setup will bring to my workflow.

While I won't be going into detail about how this is going to benefit my specific setup – besides what I mentioned earlier – you know, using three monitors out of that can bring a lot of benefits. But, I do plan on creating a video in the very near future that explores the pros and cons of dual or triple monitors, as well as other display configurations. It'll be a great opportunity to share my experience with all of you and explore how different setups can benefit your own workflow.

For now, though, let's focus on getting everything set up and configured. I'm excited to dive in and start using this monitor – it's finally here, and I couldn't be more grateful for Mag's support. As soon as this video is done, I'll be emailing you again (for the 20th time) to confirm that everything is working correctly and to thank you once more for your incredible support.

So, that's it for today – my third unboxing of the Asus PB278Q display. It's been a wild ride, but I'm excited to see where this new setup takes me. And, as always, I want to thank you all so much for watching and allowing me to share my experiences with you. You're amazing, and I couldn't do it without your support. See you in the next video!

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhello everybody how are you David the Franco here from David def franco.com with a huge huge huge unboxing almost 27 in to be fairly exact another meaning my third Asus pb278 Q LED LCD monitor yes my third monitor in addition to my previous two so so this is something I did not expect to happen at least not anytime soon but a week ago I received an extremely extremely generous donation over at David the franco.com Donate and basically the person mag is her name hello mag thank you so much mag said David buy yourself something nice buy yourself something you can use so I decided you know what I'm finally gonna do it I'm finally going to step into the world of a triple monitor setup and here it is again my third Asus pb278q 27 in display now this is insane for several reasons number one like I said triple monitors my first time using triple monitors ever number two this will increase my productivity cuz I've actually had a few moments already where dual monitors even at the size of 27 in each they're just not enough especially when I'm balancing work between Photoshop phonica 10 web browsing social media and especially web design when I my CSS modifications on one monitor a real-time preview of my website on another monitor and then whatever else you know in terms of Photoshop Graphics documents on a third monitor well until now that wasn't possible but that's just what I'm going to get into and I have mag to thank for that so mag thank you so much I owe my life to you seriously this is incredible so you know what let's just get on with it let's unbox the Asus pb278q display for the third time and this is the first time I've ever done a third unboxing of the same exact product and I figured you guys would appreciate it because this is a rare moment for me so let's open this up and and set it up oh by the way I did order this myself a 10t mini display to display port cable I'm currently using two 6ot cables but because this setup's obviously going to be a little wider than it uh you know currently is I figure 10 foot's going to be required because I'm going to be going even longer distances and yes as you can probably tell my voice is kind of shot but you know what I wasn't going to wait until tomorrow I need to unbox this today all right enough babbling let's open it okay so included is an HDMI cable BGA DVI and finally display port but again I have this a mini display port to display port cable mini display port is basically geometrically identical to Thunderbolt so this does work on my Mac Pro a 2013 Mac Pro at that so I'm trying to do my best to talk right now again my voice is terrible but anyway uh you also get an audio cable because this does have built-in speakers but honestly the built-in speakers aren't really worth using I mean they're kind of a backup solution but still manual which I will not need cable management clip that goes in the back power cable which is definitely required the stand which does have a nice weight to it and it lets you pivot so you kind of sit it there and it pivots in place which is really nice and finally last but not least the best part of the unboxing is the monitor itself which I definitely have to take out very carefully this always makes me nervous oh my God it's just as big the third time this is insane I'm never going to get used to this kind of unboxing it's very difficult to manage to get everything on video so let's pivot this all right and attempt to mount this upside down it's probably easiest clip it in and screw the fastening screw on the bottom that should be secure we'll find out in a moment come on there you go all right and flipping it around very carefully putting it on my desk and we should be good to go there you go my third Asus pb278q monitor I'm not going to go into detail in this video as to how this is going to benefit my setup uh besides what I said earlier you know T of Photoshop web design all that stuff and video editing but I do plan on creating a video in the very near future in terms of how triple monitors or even just dual monitors out of that can benefit my setup the pros and cons of it as well as a lot more information that I'm sure some of you um you know could also use so mag thank you thank you thank you I'm going to email you as soon as this video is done and this uh monitor set up I just want to get everything configured your support truly means the world to me I mean I still cannot believe I have this set up now um and this is like a dream come true when I'm
