I'm surprised more people don't do it. Apparently all you need is an ati 5850 with eyefinity, or any 2 nvidia cards of a decent number, and any 3 monitors that support the same resolution.

holy poop that is the video card I have (ATI 5850) .....must get... two more... LCDs.......

my PC is pretty strong, but I never have run it to its max yet.....

I honestly would just want to do this, so all my chat and UI stuff would be on the two other screens, and my center would be nothing but gameplay and the action bar ^.^

Just keep in mind that a single 5850 might have trouble handling the game at "good" settings with Eyefinity. Also if one of your monitors isn't DisplayPort capable you'll need an active display port adapter.

True, however going from low settings across the board to high settings, there's a big difference, but low settings is still damned goodlooking. My laptop has a gtx260m and i run low settings and it looks pretty nice still.

And i'm pretty sure you can get displayport to HDMI/DVI off ebay for under $5.

It has to be an active adapter, not passive. While they're not exactly expensive, they're not $5 cheap either.

Why did taking screenshots suck? I linked a few and they were amazing. Also, though, I use fraps for screenshots.

Active Displayport to HDMI for $9.98, sorry I was close.

They've come down in price since i've last looked at them. I'm half tempted to believe that it won't work with anything but the listed Apple devices, but seeing as Apple didn't actually make it, and that DP and HDMI are standards, it should. Now if you have DisplayPort Capable screens, all the better.

YA, the screenshots are awesome, but sharing them sucks. Most people dont have 3 screens to spread out that really wide shot, and need to zoom and scroll around it to see everything.

Then do it. It's worth it. But get identical screens. I had to put 2 hdd's under my one screen because htey're different model hanns.g 28" lcd's, sot hey don't "match".

You can also get a 6870 for like $150, which is a pretty decent upgrade.

if I do it, I would take all three screens apart and build a custom holder for them, I am odd like that ;p
