    3 monitors and 1 projector??

    Hi guys I have a question about a future set up. Could I run 3 monitors and one projector from 1 computer? The computer is a Intel Dou Core 2 e6600 with 4 gig ram and will have a Nvidia 8800gt 512mb 256bit dual output card running fs2004. All i want to achieve is some movable primary instruments on 1 screen -->duplicated on a second screen for F/O and undock some engine instruments to a center screen. The projector will be for forward visuals of course. If it will work whats the chances of it running reasonably smooth? Thanks

    Drewsta.

    Hi Drewsta,

    Your machine should run that good, you will still need a TH2Go, about OZ$500. I have it all going on my quad core/8800GTS...

    You can go 2 different routes. SoftTH or TH2G. Either should work. One means buying the TH2G box, other means getting a second video card.

    I can personally attest this setup works. Use TH2G or SoftTH to the 3 monitors and a remaining video out to the overhead projector. Here is a pic of me doing this with 3 17" Samsung LCDs using TH2G box and a InFocus SP5000 projector. The TH2G box is sorta hanging just above my right rudder pedal in that second picture.
