anyone using 3 monitors? any resolution suggestions?
I'm using Nvidia Surround on Win7 on .widescreen 1. Trying combos of game and general resolutions. Largest res (5000+) puts my nose against cockpit windscreen, less that 3000 knocks it back to single screen in game. Zoom, [ ], .fov don't seem to affect it.

I finally settled on 3072 x 768 resolution. Very little differences with the cockpit width, can't change cockpit height, and the icons are close enough to read The big resolutions just make the icons so tiny as might as well go reduced option.
It takes a little getting used to huge horizontal views, but still have a ceiling over your head, but you do. Dealing with the monitor frames is no big deal either, especially if you don't usually fly with tear-drop canopy planes.
Setting up with a Nvidia card is easy, but their video capture doesn't work at those resolutions.

mSpiro, do you still like your 3 monitor set up and still using it? I am considering that for me but get conflicting information of the various outside WB forums are regarding pros and cons. I have Geforce 1050 Ti and have one screen that is 2 K - 144 hrz and one that is 1080p - 60 hrz. It is cost prohibitive to add two more 2K - 144 screens but I could add another 27" 1080 - 60 with no problem. I should get a solid 60 fps with this. However, if I cant get improved visuals don't want to waste money that could be used to upgrade the GPU to either a 1070 or 1080

Enjoyed the times in the air with you

<S> kacey, yes I still use it. I was fortunate to get the extra screens for almost nothing. Don't know or can't remember the tech stuff, but I've had no issues with frame rates (I've got a gtx 760 card).
I also enjoy the extra screens when I'm doing normal computer work. I can the side screens show ballgames, documents, etc while working on middle screen.
I'd consider it a luxury, but non-essential.
