for those of you that use wide screen monitors and the TH2Go i have a question. i am looking to replace 3 15" monitors with 3 19" ones. widescreen monitors seem to be going a bit less expensice then 4:3 ones. i was thinking of going with the 4:3 for one reason tough- the TH2Go will make the 3 of them widescreen anyway so do i really need 19 widescreen monitors, wont it be too wide? would love to hear from anybody that has experience with both set up's especially.thanks, Kyle

I have 2 x 20" wide LCDs, getting a 3rd soon and I use forward-left, center and forward right. I think it's a great setup. Not such a thing as TOO wide :(

Kyle- can't speak for TH2Go: no hands on experience. But I've been using triple monitors for several years via two video cards to generate 3 different but fully integrated views.My set up uses 2 17" LCDs and an 18" CRT. They are all 4:3 ratio mons. (They work together just fine- with some colour balancing you can't tell 'em apart.)This combination gives me a single combined flightsim Field of View of 147

Right now with FS9 I have two 19" CRT's. I use the second one for GPS, panels..., not external views.I'm thinking about building a new rig to handle FSX and with that I am considering 1 or more LCD's. I'm trying to find LCDs that have less than 5ms response and a contrast ratio of 5000:1 or better and it seems like the only ones available are wide screen.I always thought that FS9 doesn't offer wide screen so I have a choice of stretching the screen or having black bars on the side. Is this true? Second, does FSX do wide screen without distorting the view?Ideally, I'd like to use a 17" 4:3 LCD for GPS that I already have and purchase a 24" wide screen for the center view.

Jeff- Both the ACER & IBM 17" LCDs I use have 8ms response. I worried a bit about that for fear of a mismatch with my main monitor- an 18" CRT. I'm happy to report that with a bit of colour balancing between the three, I can't detect ANY real difference whatsoever between them. Including with fast action such as aerobatic loops, rolls and Immelmans in the Extra 300!And I have the CRT brightness set to 98%. Yes FS9 is only 4:3, but you can certainly shrink the elongated 2D panel back to the left side of the screen 'til gauges are round again, then use the blank screen area to locate a popup or two.I used to wish for widescreen replacements- 'til I realized that my 2 17s & 18 already covered about 90% of my total peripheral vision. Wider mons would accomplish very little. I suppose with wider mons, I could move them all a little further away- but why? And the more pixels to fill in a widescreen, the more CPU horsepower required.(And used 17/19"LCDs are cheap nowadays- everybody wants a widescreen!)Alex ReidOver CYYJ - "Oh OH I think my harness locking pin just fell out!"
