December 2, 200718 yr If the TripleHead2GO is designed mostly for three 19" at 1280x1024x3, could somebody confirms that it works well too with dual 22" screens at 1680x1050x2, under FSX's VC ?btw if ok, a DH2GO should be sufficient since it supports too 3360x1050 ? Last but not least, could it possible that the TH2GO is "somewhere inside" faster than a DH2GO at this common resolution of 3360x1050 ?Thanks !
December 2, 200718 yr Have used the TH2Go for several installations but never bothered with the DH2Go as you can use Span Mode (nVidia cards) to spread across 2 screens..effectively making the DH2Go redundant. The only time I would envisage a DH2Go is if you had a single graphics card but wanted to spread your outside/VC across 2 monitors and have your second output for an instrument panel. Even so in such a situation I'd put in a second graphics card instead of a DH2Go.RegardsJim
December 2, 200718 yr Thanks a lot Jim for this advice. I was an ati user until now, the 8800 is not even received at this day. Actually, i'm using a 22" and a 19". So i'd like to have the VC on two 22", the 19" will stay for watching tv during too long flights ! so as you had guessed, the two 22" through a DH2Go/TH2Go ? and the 19" on the other output of the 8800 gts if possible ? Using again the search key, i found a post from nov 2006 where Reset Mcp Alt said having used two 22" but with the TH2Go.
December 2, 200718 yr The Digital TH2Go (rather than a DH2Go)would work with 2 monitors and give you greater flexibility if you decided to go for a 3 screen wideview.RegardsJim
December 2, 200718 yr The main problem with using two monitors with the VC is that the join is in the center of the field of view and can be annoying. Also the native resolution of the 22inch monitors is not 1280x1024 which is the per screen output of the TH2GO. Still, some people have been happy with the outcome. Regards Howard H D Isaacs

December 3, 200718 yr That's me :-) Actually, when I had 2 x 22" widescreens I did NOT use TH2G, rather I just used spanned mode which is supported by nVidia drivers for XP only. I now use TH2G for 3 x 19" monitors in Vista, with a fourth 19" monitor just for giggles.Gary 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
December 3, 200718 yr ok thanks guys.I see that the last acer x243w is only 330 euros. Maybe this 24" and the actual 22" from the 2 outputs will be interesting for me, certainly cheaper !
December 3, 200718 yr Just a quick word, Matrox answered to me :There is no difference in speed between the DH2Go or the TH2Go. cqfd...

I recently updated to Vista 64 and have a TH2GO with three monitors and a fourth monitor that I have used for gauges. With Vista 64 My normal desktop works fine, however in FSX I have been unable to display anything on the fourth monitor. I just get a black screen and "problems".I have read that this maybe a Nvidia problem.
