I've just picked up a third Dell 24" which has the same res as my current two, 1920 x 1200. Everything was fairly simple to set up and is working great, my original 2x Dells (in sig) are connected via DVI and the new one is connected via DP.

The thing I am unsure about is how to game across 3 screens? I tried the obvious - start game, go into settings and change resolution but I am running at 5760x1200 and unsurprisingly that option isn't there...

It's the first time I've ever tried to game on more then 1 screen. It may be obvious, but what do I need to do? (I don't expect my GTX 760 to cope too well, I'll be looking to change that soon.)
 
I'm sure I went into Nvidia Control Panel and set to multi monitors etc. I will try again tonight though. The games I'd like to try are UT3, Dirt Showdown and Crysis for now.
 
Ah I'd missed some options in there. I've got it working now, tried dirt showdown and crysis so far and it looks insane. :D

I think I need a new gfx card...
 
UT3 is unplayable, I think I need to edit some FOV settings because it's all stretched atm. Crysis is a good one to impress people with your triple screen setup as it looks stunning. Dirt Showdown was the most fun to play on 3 screens so I agree with you, I'm gonna invest in some more racers and maybe even a new gfx card at some point.
