Video grunt vs CPU grunt for extra monitors

Featured Replies

I posted this thread on the monitors / video's section also. Here we go. The two set up's. A. Quad core CPU @ 3.6 GHZ running FSX using a single 3GB GTX 580 @ 2560 x 1400 for a single monitor, B, verses a Quad core CPU @ 3.6 GHZ running FSX using three GTX 580's for each monitor (3 monitors) @ 2560 x 1440. To run the extra monitors at that configuration, will it require more CPU grunt ? thus the adding of a card and monitor adding extra stress on the CPU = lower frames? Is the rendering of pixels a CPU agenda verses a GPU agenda?

A bonus question. If it is CPU dependent, could a second or third computer be daisy chained to run the other monitors, thus fluid frame rates for FSX? Thus each monitor has it's own CPU and GPU. Extra bonus bonus question. what is needed to do this if required?

 

Thank you for any responses.
