November 7, 20232 yr With no fix for the existing multi-monitor support on the horizon, I'm being forced down the 3 PC route. My plan is to install Steam MSFS on 3 PCs, each connected to a TV. I will be using Aerowinx PSX which can sync MSFS over the network. How do I go about this practically? I think I need 3 different Steam accounts, with 3 separate emails and 3 separate credit cards? How does scenery work? Can I install airports on one shared drive between the 3 PCs, or maybe rsync the scenery between PCs?

Only option I've found is to use an Asus 4090tuf board with an AMD 7950X3D cpu with 64GB RAM @ 6000, Samsung 990 pro nvme and a USB-C to VGA connector. I'm also using the HDMI and DP connectors on the Gigabyte x670e motherboard. The end result is not bad at all, keep in mind this computer is running seven monitors, three at 4K and four at 1080p.

November 7, 20232 yr I’m not in the world in the slightest but I did always wonder why one would need several PCs for this setup. genuinely curious to learn why

All the flight dynamics are driven from Aerowinx PSX software which in turn drives MSFS. Each PC will be connected to 1 TV. I have 3 TVs (1 in the middle, 1 left and 1 right angled around 45 degrees).

November 8, 20232 yr Not if you use the "experimental" multi monitor option it doesn't. It creates a new rendering window for each screen. THere are definitly some drawbacks but it does work Kael Oswald 9950X3D/ 64GB DDR5 6200 @ CL30 / Custom Water Loop / RTX 5090 / 3 x 48" LG C4 OLEDs

THere are definitly some drawbacks but it does work That's what I use. unfortunately the view still stretches. I'm not technical enough to explain why but it could be something to do with frustums.
