Widescreen Gaming Forum

After my post as a newbie this appears to be the correct place to post this:-
I have recently rebuilt my P.C. to be able to run games such as Far Cry 3 at max graphics etc and run smoothly which I am pleased to say it does.
But now after seeing screenshots and members comments I wish to extend it to three screens.
My questions are:-
Will my current specification support three screen gaming?
Do the bezels create any issues?
Presumably I will have to purchase two more monitors of exactly the same type.
Current Specification,

Corsair CC-9011049-WW Obsidian Series 450D Windowed Mid-Tower ATX High Airflow Performance Computer Case
Corsair CX750 Builder Series CX 750W ATX/EPS 80 PLUS Bronze PSU

Hi.
Yes you can simply buy 2 other Asus VG248QE Monitors and plug them in.
The 280x does have 2x DVI right?
If you wish to use 144hz Eyefinity or 3D Eyefinity you need to check first if both DVI ports are Dual Link /Digital.
I think you can manage 60FPS in 5760x1080 if you go medium to high details without much AA. But 144hz or 3d will probably only work on Low settings.

If you don't want to use these features you could just buy any two side monitors.
It's simply recommended to buy identical Monitors because they have the same color correction and brightness.


The bezel are not really a problem. As you automatically start to ignore them after a few minutes of gaming.
Or that's what's normally happens

The R9-280X does have 2xDVi, 1xHDMI & 1xGP.
What angle should the two outside monitors be in relation to the middle screen?

that depends on the distance and viewpoint.
Just try out a few different ones. You'll see when you'll like it.
