Anyone know the maximum number of display screen it can provide if each display card with a Triplehead2Go box?Can two triplehead boxes connect to one dual output display card for 6 display? If so...... 1 pc for 24 displays???www.alkit.net
September 5, 200619 yr Well, from the specs I can tell it has "Quad PCI-E x 16 slots".If you'd place a GPU that has 2 heads in each of those, you'd have the above setup. But I'm assuming they used something like 4x ATi Radeon1900 or something like that to run this.About the TripleHead2Go... I think so. If I understand the technology right, the box tells the PC it's just a screen with the heigth of a normal screen, and the width of 3 screens. It then divides that signal to 3 seperate connectors. You could have 8 of those 'virtual screens', wich would result in 24 IRL screens :)I'm not sure if you could use these 24 screens right, as the PC only sees 8 instead of 24.
September 5, 200619 yr Only one TH2Go unit (or DH2Go) is supported in a system - nobody seems to have tried more than one anyway.It doesn't really matter though since you need a fast system to use one TH2Go since you are putting out 3 x 1280 x 1024 pixels. Doubling or even quadrupling that will bring anything current to its knees.
September 6, 200619 yr As the current technology allow, seems a good alternative to get a motherboard with at 2 or more PCI-E slot for multi display. The cost should not be much more than using a TH2Go (depends on what card to get). TH2Go still the most economic choice for a single display card user.Can the dual output display card with TH2Go, put out 4 displays in total?3 from the TH2Go and one from the other output in the display card? www.alkit.net
September 7, 200619 yr I just recently purchased a MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum and an Athlon 64 X2 3800+ CPU from ZipZomfly Unfortunately, I am having trouble getting it to work. According to the LED code, provided by MSI with the MB, the CPU is bad. I emailed ZipZoomfly several days ago but I haven JohnMy first SIM was a Link Trainer.

September 9, 200619 yr Hi John,3 PCI-E, that's great!!! I look forward to it!so you can install 3 different display cards into the board, instead of buying three identical cards?Another question. I am new to use multiple display.I am not using a dual output display card (single computer), how can I setup a wideview (two displays)? (apart from undock window)www.alkit.net
October 6, 200619 yr At present I have an MSI K8N-SLI, with 2 GF6800Pro cards.They are not in SLI mode, so I have 4 displays to use for my outside view. The only trouble is that FS9 sees them as two separate cards wich results in a maximum resolution of 2560X1024 per card, which is two displays. So i have to undock a second outside view for the second card.The trouble with that is you have to align them to each other, with a couple of lines in the panel config, but that is very hard to do right.When on the ground, alignment is reasonably well, but when taking off I get some sort of a "v" shape in the horizon between the two sets of displays. When descending this is the other way around, thus an inverted "V" shape. As long as you climb it is not a big problem. You see the horizon only for a short while, and after that it's all sky, but when descending, this can be very annoying.I have not been able to eliminate that. Have tried various zoom settings and other things, but the phenomenon remains.......Not an ideal setup, but flying on 4 screens is great !!!Maybe trying the setup in SLI, and then connecting a couple of TH2Go's to the mastercard is a better idea, only I understand that this is not possible?Regards,JaapThe Lear45 Project
October 7, 200619 yr For what ever it is worth I am running 5 monitors for my outside views and 2 19" lcd's for my cockpit running from 2 computers both identical Motherboard Asus A8N32 CPU AMD 4400each contains 2 Nvidia 7800 GTXeach card has two DVi outputs so computer number one runs 4 monitors - center view, front-left and the pilot /copilot panel monitors computer 2 runs front-right , left and right outside view monitors I am using Wideview and undocked viewsthinking of next system to be a four PCI-express motherboard this would allow 4 graphics cards each with two outputs therfore eight monitors this would avoid wideview issues aligning weather and traffic.curious if anyone has been succesful with this ....Allan "SEAHAWK"
