My brothers-
Like you, I want to have the most immersive driving experience possible. I actually purchased a 24 inch monitor and sent it back...it was good, but not that great an improvement. Then I stumbled across the Triplehead2Go thread on this forum.
Sometimes I enjoy being an early adopter, but this setup scared me a bit. I had to commit to three monitors and the unit itself...yikes!
I did as much research as I could tolerate and found the usual conflicting info. (2ms is better than 8 ms because of ghosting, 8 ms is better than 2ms because of color saturation, etc) I finally settled on three 19 inch dell monitors at 200 US a crack. (by the time you read this I’m sure they’ll be 5 bucks)
The boxes arrived and I set the rig up..
Let me say this...Holy F&$%ing Crap! This is one of those rare purchases that over-delivers. Not only are flight and driving sims incredible, but the amount of desktop available for work is amazing. (I make a virtual Spanish learning game and have to do audio editing, script editing, conference calling, usually at the same time ) I’ve had 3 friends see this thing in action and buy one that very day.
Don’t go by my recommendation alone. Take it as a data point, but this thing is worth every penny!
Actually...do go by my recommendation! What? are going to live forever?
Now excuse me...I must get back to my precious.

the only two things currently stopping me from buying a th2g setup (except the pirce of course) is that its tfts and its utterly rubbish for watching movies

btw how does maximising windows work ? do the maximise across all 3 screens ?
and what are your pc specs and framerates ?

They have a little utility that makes windows think you have one super high aspect ratio screen.
I'll post some screenshots in a couple of hours.
It really is wonderful...and it's a business expense!
Hours? Hours??!

I really want one of these myself, but I'm spending allot of money on HD and stuff right now so I have to wait, do'h.

"I did as much research as I could tolerate"

Great sentence, can I use it? ;-)
