Skyline Fang to waterfalls on 3x 22" Monitors

[josephgrovers]

You should try this one part of the island on the inner northeast side. It has tons of turns with you going up and down hills. It's the most fun part of the island I've found so far. And using the skyline with it is even more fun :D

I love that part of the island too, I like taking the older muscle cars up that road and sliding the corners.

[josephgrovers]

Oh!!!! Good idea, seems like it's a good place for rally cars. Which is what those cars were basically built for.

Hey, i am really considering getting multiple moniters aswell and i wonder. Does playing games with multiple moniters require more computer power? Like i have a 9800 gt, would i need another videocard or am i fine as it is?

[CelticLight]

Your 9800 gt would work fine. If you go the triplehead2go option the th2g does most of the work and the vid card thinks it is connected to 1 large screen. I have now replaced my 8800gtx (after a watercooling leak problem) with an Ati 4850 and it works no problem.

[josephgrovers]

have you tried flight simulator with those screens? It'd probably work great. So yeah, I'd love that. So is triplehead2go like an adapter also? So it goes on the cable and adds extra ports for the other screens?

[josephgrovers]

Wow, so i just found out, not only do i have to spend like $300 on 2 more moniters. But the triplehead2go box costs $150 -_-

[CelticLight]

I found mine on ebay, much cheaper second hand and work just as well. I have an analogue one and a digital one now. If you go digital and want the screen res of 5040x1050 you will need monitors that allow 56mhz. Mine dont so I stay at 3840x1024. Still awesome but not max.

[josephgrovers]

So i plan on getting two more 20 inch monitors that are 1650x1050, will it be possible to do 1650x3 or is 5040 the most? Also, would any graphics card work with this?

[CelticLight]

if you want 3 x 1680x1050 you have to have a monitor to will handle 56mhz refresh rate. Most monitors have 60mhz standard (like mine) as the lowest and so you wont get 5040x1050. the graphics card should not have a problem. Best look at some of the forums to check which monitor brands support the 56mhz.

[josephgrovers]

Ok, ill just do it your way :D Also one thing. Don't you think Subaru cars should be in test drive? I love the skyline for it's great handling and just all around greatness you'd find in a rally car and subaru has great rally cars. It's a no brainer to put subaru in the next test drive.

[CelticLight]

I have a subaru WRX STi in mine. If you do a quick google search you can find out how to add mod skins to existing cars. I changed my Audi RS4 into a WRX with the right sound too. I have added an RX7 and changed RUF to Porche. Check it out. No one else sees your skin unless they have done the same mod. I race with my brother and we have added the same mods so we can see them. Try it and enjoy.

[josephgrovers]

Yeah, I've heard of that, i may consider doing it. So when you put a new skin onto a car, does it have the same performance as the car you're putting the skin onto. Or is it modded to have it's own?

[CelticLight]

It is just the skin, same car performance and not all skins fit all cars. try forum . tdu-central . com.

i bin to that view on 360 on my Kawasaki and i go so fast i jump onto the top of the mountain pass the fence

[34skyline]

are those apple or dell displays

[CelticLight]

They are neither. They are Acer 2216w LCD monitors. As I wrote on my Audi RS4 vid I am running 3 x 22" LCD screens on a 8800GTX video card & a Quad core QX6700 water cooled system. I use a Matrox TripleHead2go external card to split the video signal.

[RotorDemon]

Love the monitor setup.
