| :lol: So after a few weeks and can't image how many $$$$ spent. Below is the system I built myself. Keep in mind that all this started out because I had (2) 20" widescreen monitors and a crap ATI X1950Pro that didn't have good resolutions. New and "Final" system: Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate 32B... |

| That mod looks SICK!!!! I'd like to see how much dead space/bezel area I could gain by doing the same. I like how he mounted the panels to clear plexiglass etc. Looks very nice! |

| WOW that totally fixed the problem, thanks!!! An additional note: When I first setup this new system, I couldn’t get the current version of the nVidia drivers to give me the option to configure SLI in nVidia Control Panel. To get the SLI configuration option to even show up, I had to use specifica... |

| Sure I'd be happy to do a frametime benchmark... give me a little bit but I’ll do it soon. Picked up Crysis and in graphic settings I clicked select based on system. It selected everything as “Very High†|

It ended up being the driver version. Once I installed v169.25 the SLI option was avaliable in nVidia Control Panel. creX:Napster over on SLI Zone recommended this version and it's good.
Life is good! |

| Sorry about that... Yes I do have a TH2GO Digital Ed. I have only 1 DVI port from the 8800GTX installed in PCI-e slot-1 that's connected to TH2Go. But the driver within Vista is not showing any SLI setting options in the 3D settings area of the nVidia Control Panel. |

| I'll try the driver thing later today... I did get from EVGA's website the latest drivers for the 8800GTX. But I loaded them over top the drivers I installed from the CD that came with the card. The driver on the website was dated 01-01-2008. So I know they are fairly new. I'll look around for a dri... |

| Posted a few days ago regarding setting up my system, thanks again to all who posted replies, I appreciate it. I started out with (3) 24" widescreens monitors (1920x1200), (1) EVGA 8800GT Superclocked Ed. and a TH2Go. However after using it for a while I wasn’t happy with the resolution the TH2Go.... |

| Oh... I never thought about mixing different cards such as an GTX and GT. So use a GTX as the main video card for either TH2GO and/or monitor #1 for SoftTH, and use (2) GT's for SoftTH for monitors #2, #3 etc... Good idea! |

| Yeah... that way I mentioned I was think of returning the GT's and get GTX's if I wanted to go Triple SLI.... still thinking about it.... but probably will just stick with what I currently have and wait and see what news comes from Matrox over the next few months. |

| What you said in your last post is exactly how I'm going to approach things. I might keep the TH2GO only if I can't get FSX to work with SoftTH. I was thinking of returning the GT's and getting GTX's for the option of 3-Way SLI FSX if TH2GO is the only way I get it to work. But the way I look at it ... |

| I’ll try to make it a bit clearer for all who have replied to my post… As for (4) monitors, I wasn’t planning on using that setup ultimately for widescreen gaming. What I was referring to with the (4) monitor setup was that (1) monitor by itself (1920x1200) and (3) monitors on the TH2GO (4080x... |

| Pretty much all what I hoped would not be so. I do have a different approach to try I guess. I picked up a new Asus P5N-T that supports 3-way SLI meaning it will take 3 PCI-E Video cards. If possible could I use (3) EVGA 8800GT Super Clocked video cards NOT use them in SLI mode and use (3) 24" 1920x... |

| I too have had questions about higher resolution running widescreen monitors and a TH2GO. Originally I was using an ATI X1950w/256MB, a TH2GO Digital Ed. and (3) 20" Widescreens. The widescreen monitors had a native resolution of 1680x1050 and the TH2GO caused an undesirable resolution when all 3 mo... |
