Emacs with auctex, cdlatex, pdf-view and always two frames. C-c C-a is super useful. Also pdf-view-auto-crop-mode.

cdlatex and in-buffer previews with (org-latex-preview) are great too when not writing in a .tex file.

This is how I originally got into using Emacs. As the best environment for LaTeX (via AUCTeX).
