so yesterday i decided to purchase via prime a dvi-vga adapter to see if i could do a triple monitor setup which i can and due to my 2 smaller vga monitors having 1440x900 res combining them to my 1366x768 res of my tv i have a surround res of 3072x768 which looks meh for general, but in gta 5 atleast it didnt seem too bad, quite cool having 3 screens.

as you may see(if link works?) i am doing okay at over 40fps with lots of stuff on high/very high, 34fps seems to be the lowest, dont know what other games will be like, but i am now thinking of upgrading my 2 vga screens to dvi options soon, but what is the best res this card will handle for 3 screens?


ps ignore the bad gameplay, gta doesnt seem to like my wireless keyboard :rolleyes:
 
If the maximum res with all 3 screens is 3072x768 then that's only about 12% more pixels then 1920x1080. Should be able to just about get by with low settings for the most part on most games. Tbh the card is probably best suited for 1680x1050 with medium maybe 1366x768 highest or something like that. Other games like CS GO or Overwatch I'd imagine you could max them out on the big res.
 
cheers for reply.

i dont really plan to keep using my tv, i would much prefer monitors, so i would probably get 3 1366x768 screens, though i had been thinking of one big screen like that cheapest 25" 1080 superwide on this site, i have relocated my tower to the top of my bookcase right of the screen to enable more or larger screens, dont know what the best experience be and i dont mean just for gta or fps,but more for racing games i will want to play.
