ok, I think this is my choice for a surround screen setup:

Viewsonic VP930b

From what I have read, the resolution and size and performance seems to be ideal for a triplehead setup. Any opinions?

Yeah ... that would be perfect for TripleHead ... 8) ... I had 3 of the previous model to this and they were great.

Keep in mind ... (from one of your other threads.)

If you're going to use a 6600GT to drive triple displays, expect to do it at a low resolution such as 2400x600 (triple 800x600). At 2400x600 your system will be pushing approximately the same number of pixels as it does now at 1600x1200, so try it out and see.

I wouldn't really recommend that card for triplehead gaming. It's a better idea, although it obvisouly costs more money, to drive the whole display system with a powerful graphics card.

BTW ... Please just ask all your questions in the same thread ... 8)
You answered your own question here in this one ...

... but started this one ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/7162

... and asked similar/other questions in this thread ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/7163

It is much easier to follow if they are all in the same thread ... :wink:

no problem man. What can I say........I'm a jerk. Anyway, just a suggestion - you seem to be the mac daddy in this area, you should put a sticky up with FAQ's and tips for nooobs. Just basic stuff so someone can go to one thread and get up to speed on the requirements to set up a triplehead setup. Later.
