Re: Eyefinity or TH2go?
I never used TH2GO but I do get very good FPS at high settings with the ATI 5870.

Re: Eyefinity or TH2go?
On a single monitor at same slider setting I get an average fps 50++, very dense airports 30+ fps. So the TH2Go is draining the processors performance for it’s still the processor that has to calculate the 5040 x 1060 pixels. I am very curious what Eyefinity could add compared to that, for FS(X) is a processor depended game, no doubt about that.
I think there is still no other way to get good fps on multi displays than WideView !! And as I see how price to performance evolves between AMD and Intel … we might have a winner. AMD Phenom Black edition processors are cheap and can handle over 4.2GHz clock in a stable system. AMD seems to make a high end WideView system more affordable for a larger group of cockpit builders.
Just my 2 cents worth…….

Re: Eyefinity or TH2go?
I just started using ATI 5870. Only problem I have with a 3 monitor setup is in full screen. In full screen I get a clone of the virtual cockpit on each monitor. The only way I can use it is to alt-enter out of full screen and then stretch that across all three monitors, then I end up with the tool bar at the bottom and the menu tabs at the top. Does anyone have a work around for this in order to use the full screen across all 3 monitors. I do have them grouped 3X1 and using Win 7 64 bit. Also is there a way to zoom below the 30% limit to get a better view of the cockpit along with the outside?

Re: Eyefinity or TH2go?
Hi,
At first I had the same thing.
In windowed mode, FS uses the destktop resolution.
In full screen, you need to have set the FS resolution in the settings menu.
You should be able to select 4000X1024 or something like that.
One other thing you can change is the with of the screen FS shows.
Therefore you need to add one line to the display section of the FSX.cfg: WideViewAspect=True
Then you should have a wider field of view.
Hope this helps
