Quick Update. I went over to a friends house that has Call of Duty 4 and a 22" monitor. I played at 1280x800 then max resolution then back, etc... I did a lot of visual comparisons with objects in the distance and close up objects. Obviously the max res looks better but to my amazement it wasnt a sh... |

hmmmm .... you do know using the TH2GD you are gonna have to run those 22" monitors at 3 x 1280X800 to get a desktop image that isn't distorted. Yes, I was aware of this. Since I am a noob when it comes to surround gaming and in particular wide screen surround gaming, can someone who has seen both t... |

Thanks njracer. I mostly play MMO, RTS and FPS style games but from what I have read over the past week when it comes to TH2G flight sims and racing games are a must. I will definitely check out the titles you listed above. The blue tiger setup looks like a perfect gift for your average racing fan :... |

Thanks for the info! Either way, this is going to be an experience. I spend most of my free time gaming and have not upgraded my pc for almost 3 years. Im used to 19", 10-30 FPS with lowered settings on most games. To go from that to what I just bought not to mention surround gaming should keep me p... |

8800GT isn't ideal for the very resolution of TH. It'll run but you really want more memory and bit-depth than the 8800GT provides. It's cheap enough though. So it might be a resonable compromise. What if i were to purchase a second GT in the future and go sli? Do you feel that this would be a bette... |

Thats not bad considering the quality of these monitors. Did i mention 2ms, nice : ) If anyone's interested this is a black friday spe... |

Also, i am planning on using three SAMSUNG 941BW 19" LCD monitors. I was thinking about spending a little extra and moving up to 22" but three monitors are already going to set me back $700. Any opinions on using 3 19" vs 22"? |

Hello all, I am planning to purchase the Matrox Triplehead2go digital edition but cannot find the geforce 8800GT on the compatibility list on the Matrox site. I do see that the GPU's for the GTS and GTX are supported in the 8800 series. Does anyone run a 8800GT with the 3head2go digital? Thanks, Matt |
