Hello all,

I haven't found too many programs for this feature other than Ultramon2.0 and haven't heard of any games that can take advantage of two or more monitors.

How many of you are taking advantage of this feature and what favourite apps do you use to take advantage of two or more monitors?




For anyone not familiar with the virtues of multimonitors it permits me to have the TV tuner On 19" monitor (I'm a financial consultant so I like to have the business news on as much as I can), second monitor 17" is my browser for keeping up to date stock markets etc, third monitor 17" is for my Email, contact manager, office, word etc.

Another advantage to multimonitors is the capacity to "S T R E T C H" whatever application over two or even three monitors in order to view and work on more information without schrolling.



C'mon guys, anyone else out there with multimonitor setup?

The only thing I use my 3 monitors for mainly is program development. You can take some games (like UT) and run them in windowed mode and stretch them across all 3 monitors...but your frame rates won't be any good.

You might also want to check the FAQs on the cards you plan to use to see if they have any "known issues".

If u use seperate cards for each monitor, just download Powerstrip. It's a good prog that'll let you do tons of tweaking :D
