Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hello Guys and Ladies,

I need a little help. I use a triplehead2go analogue with 3x Hewlett Packard's at the min (20") but as one has developed a fault, I'm changing all 3 to Acers X233HB 23" widescreen monitors. I've already ordered them but now I'm not so sure if they'll work ok with the TH2G. Please can someone answer a couple of simple questions? Firstly, will I be able to use them all together, and secondly, will I still be able to fill the screen or will it be a bit like watching a widescreen tv, with black borders at the top and bottom? I think I can still change my order if I need to ( ordered from Comet). The new monitors are 23" wide, pixel res = 1920 x 1080,
colours supported = 16.7, although not sure what this means.

If I cant fill the screen with the image then I'd rather change the monitors. I'm using it with Microsoft FSX.

Many thanks,

Rory

The monitor might have built in scalers in which will give you a 5:4 or 4:3 image with black bars, but most monitors let you set the scaler mode to where you can just fill the screen. I do recommended upgrading to the Digital Edition though, because of you getting widescreen monitors. But that's just me, or hell you could go get an Eyefinity card or use SoftTH for that matter.
