January 4, 201313 yr I'm just looking at different possibilities for my cockpit, one of them is to use an array of displays, 1 for outside view and 3 for instruments. My questions are: 1- Can FSX handle it? 2- How hard the 3 extra screens will impact in my FPS? Thanks in advance.
January 4, 201313 yr Well i run 3+1 monitors. 3x for the main display at 5760x1080 in WIndowed mode (ATI Eyefinity) and one mounted on top displaying moving map data and normally a film. The higher resolution does impact on the performance the additional screen in my config makes no difference. In your configuration in would have a fairly significant impact on FPS. FSX can handle it.

January 4, 201313 yr Commercial Member FSX can "handle" it, but your processor and graphics card is the question. I run four displays, 3 for the virtual cockpit off an ATI Radeon 5830 (pretty good card, benchmarks still better than the ATI 7770), and a fourth display off a second 5830 just fpr instruments. Google this topic and you'll find many posts about this with a lot more information.

January 4, 201313 yr Hi and thanks, I'm not worried about the hardware, just wanted to be sure there is no software limitations.
