Three-monitor Gaming

I played GW2 with a trip monitor setup. It was fun.

I wish I had the space to do this.....but I'd still have to convince the wife.

The only way to do triple monitor gaming is with three vertices monitors.

I was very tempted recently to go three monitor but I've just got a 27" 1440p monitor and the 2x GTX 670's I bought with it still wouldn't be able to power three of those.

I think he means he wouldn't be able to power games at 7680x1440 with just two 670s, and he probably wouldn't, at least not on high visual settings. It'll power a desktop that big no problem, as long as you're still only gaming on one(or maybe 2) of them.

I have 2 1920x1200 monitors with a 3GB 660Ti, and I can't really run anything across both monitors at decent speeds, unless all graphic settings are medium to low. Skyrim or Far Cry 3 at ulta settings get about 10-15 FPS spanned across both monitors :/

3 1440p monitors would take a lot of horsepower to game at good levels. 7680 x 1440 is over 5 times the resolution of a standard 1920x1080 monitor.

Remember this go to widescreengaming.org or com can't remember which and down load widescreen fixer as the guys there hack the ini files so games like COD series and Mass Effects series can be played in trip monitor format.

Sadly my trip monitor were put away due to many issues most game related like waiting for the hack ini files or wondering if tri fire is going to work etc. Finally got fed up and went 2670 x 1600 30" HP and glad I did.

Yeah I could have picked up two more 1080p 24" monitors but I figure a 27" @1440p is good enough really.

The two 670's run everything fully maxxed out without skipping a beat and the increased pixel density is pretty awesome anyway.

I have seen a 3 screen setup @1440p, it took 3 titans, fuck, that.

I remember playing that two-screen X-men arcade game when I was a kid. I would dream about one day playing my home video games on multiple screens. You guys are living my childhood dream. Meanwhile I'm playing games on a 4-year-old 15 inch laptop.

I hate everyone in this thread.

speaking of monitors ive been looking around the last few days, whats the deal with gaming monitors and "black equalizer" vs a regular monitor, also xl vs rl fps vs rts monitors?

this site shows pics and kinda explains it but anyone actually have experience with them?

Stolen from Reddit, but still awesome:

Question

Anyone here ever do 3-monitor gaming with monitors of different resolutions? I currently have 2 1920x1200 28" Monitors. If I buy a 3rd I don't want to waste my time with something old like those 2, I'd like to get one of the 1440p Korean monitors and probably put it in the middle(and probably turn them all vertical)

Is it possible to even game across varying resolutions, or would they all just have to default to the lowest common denominator(1920x1200). My wife would kill me if I bought 3 new monitors right now(we just had our first kid), but I could swing one no problem.
