hey all, I have 2x24" samsung monitors (245bw) and about to get a 3rd, and wanted to know if the th2g would be worth my while since the native resolution is 1920x1200. All the information I could find is that the recommended size of the monitors are 19" 4:3 at 1280x1024.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Its quite simple: set both your monitors to 1280x1024. If you can stand the resulting image, go ahead and get the triplehead. Any problems should become immediately apparent.

Hey ... welcome to the forum ... :D

At the top of this section of the forum there is a Sticky: Info about the TripleHead and Widescreens ...

Also ... a quick search would reveal that this or a similar question has been asked many times ...

I am actually pondering this setup for myself. I'd like to run 3 of those LCDs in portrait mode at 3x1200x1920 then use SoftTH with a mobo like the ASUS P5W64 WS Pro or L1N64-SLI WS depending if I go AMD or Intel. I'd just throw my 8800GTS 320's in and play. That might just be xmas for me. :D

Yeah triplehead across 3 24"s would be pretty fugly but if you put them far enough away it might look ok.

Be aware that vista doesn't support the widescreen triplehead resolutions.
