Hi guys, I found this forum not so long ago, after I heard about the Triple Head 2 Go gadget in which I got very interested.
I am actually planning on getting a Triple Head 2 Go Digital and 3 TFT Displays. I was browsing a lot on Ebay and half the web for a TFT, that would suit me best.
I am still not sure, wether I should use 3 19â€

:welcome

I strongly recommend three standard 19" screens (which are actually 5:4) for better maximum resolution. In vert- games (which should be avoided or run in a window) you would really appreciate the taller screens. Additionally, 3 of those together are plenty wide (15:4=3.75:1, 16:9=1.778:1)

If you find a good way to get rid of the bezels then joining 2 24"WS would really be ideal (3840x1200)

Don't bother trying to get a notboook screen to work on a desktop computer unless you are willing to spend dousens of ehours a screen and a couple hundred $$ each as well.

Thank you guys. I have two more question :D

What exactly is this â€œsoftthâ€

Mergatroid · Post by **Mergatroid** » 01 May 2008, 18:16

SoftTH is a software solution for surround gaming. As long as you have at least 3 video outputs, you can use it. It has more flexibility than the TH2Go, but requires much more video processing power since it's a software solution.

No, you won't be able to go above the limit with a 7900 GS. You need an 8xxx series card.

[quote]Generally, I tend to like the three widescreen TFTs more, because I think it gives you an even better feeling of being â€œsurroundedâ€
