| "...The screen includes five inputs per panel..." I don't see how that's a "six-screen monitor". It's six nice monitors on a nice stand and your system will see it as such. |

| Welcome to the club (of hating every unsupported or vert- game and of never being able to stand playing any rig not set up like yours - still - it's a lot of fun and I wouldn't go back.) |

| One chunk of software I found indispensable with my TH2G is GridMove. It requires a bit of setup at first - though I posted my TH2G grid here: (Link) The great thing is that (1) it's Free and (2) it's so simple to use once set up: [Win]-[1] resizes the active app to screen 1, [Win]-[2] resizes the a... |

| From what I've read at 3x(1680x1050) the card needs to output at 57Hz rather than 60. ATI cards lowest output is 60. |

| Most if not all 3d games won't support that type of setup. I know that Flight Sim 2004 will with a 3rd party plugin, however. Check out SoftTH, as I think that would be applicable to what you're describing.I'll third that, providing it works with your game(s) of choice. Otherwise you're out of luck... |

I had a 7950 GX2. I traded it to a friend. He had issues a week later and sent it in for warranty. He got a 9800 GX2 back. D'oh!
I wonder if you card is going bad on you. |

| Tyinsar, What are you using to mount your 6-monitor setup? I know there are mounts available, but I'm curious which one you use. I've been thinking of going the 6-monitor route also.

...This would also overcome the removal of horizontal-span modes in Vista, which is an epic fail imho when MS removed that option.... I rely on vertical span mode but won't use Vista on my game system for that same reason. :evil: Epic Fail indeed MS |

| We had 2 Th2Gos running 6 screens with a single nVid card in vertical span mode in the labs a little while ago. Just for fun we were running Crysis across all 6 monitors seen as one. Frames-per-sec were okay, but indeed the bezels got in the way. :)You mean there's a chance I tried it before you gu... |

| Welcome to the forums. Here's what my experience with 2 TH2G & 6 19" screens taught me: 2 TH2G limits you to XP since Vista doesn't support span mode. Also the massive resolution hammers ALL graphics cards pretty hard (& forget about SLI - it won't work.) If you're playing graphically simpler games ... |

| You are correct on both counts. I wish the TH2G supported more but... I guess I should have added that I ended up using 19" (1280x1024) screens. Other than what I mentioned I can't see another way around the centered bezel issue (other than using expensive high-res projectors). For me that's a show ... |

| The problem I see with the DH2G is that you have a bezel in the center. Even with two of them and 4 monitors you'll still have that issue. My solution was to go with 2 TH2G units in vertical span mode (3 wide x 2 high). Because of centered pop-up messages I notice the horizontal bezels more than I d... |

| Looks great indeed. I'm guessing BA2 might have higher requirements and thus have a nasty frame rate at larger resolutions. |
