That GPU will be fine. I ran Lock On initially in triplehead with a 6800GT, but I needed to do so at 2400x600 at reduced settings.


But I just ordered 3 nice Saumsung 943BX 19'' LCDs (and a TH2GO digital) that run in native resolution of 1280x1024, therefore I will HAVE to play at 3840X1024, right? Do you think my 7950GX2 will handle this res.?

And will I have to lower all the settings in LOFC? Right now, at 1600X1200, I can play with a comfortable average of 25-30 FPS with everything maxed (including Birdy's high scenery addon and the new Reload terrain textures!!!)

thanks for the help

You won't have to play at 3840x1024, but you need to use that res to avoid interpolation on your monitors.

When I used 2400x600 I was using CRTs, so changing the res didn't matter.


I think you will be fine. Start with reasonable settings, not everything cranked all the way, and see how it does. I'm guessing you will be able to set certain things all the way up and have to back off on a few others.

Thanks for the advice JK.
This is a very interesting and friendly forum (I didnt know it before starting to investigate for TH2Go...) Now I am really glad I found it!

I will start with the monitors and stand and TH2go (on the way).
I will do as you said and if I feel I cannot get a comfortable fluidity, then I will consider upgrading my Vidcard...


thanks
