Food Is this Possible?

everyone knows that you must have oNe monitor to actually use your computer and that dual monitor is possible by installing a second video card.

I now have a second card and happen to have three monitor in the closet, so i decided to set them side by side. now its actually quite fun to work on a million things AT ONE time!!

Xx My question is.... is it possible to actually have three video cards and have three monitors all running together? xX

>> Just some simple thought that ran through my mind, I wonder if its possible, because i've never heard of it being done before.

what do you think???

Personally I don't think it is possible with 3 video cards.!!
But you can try and get a Matrox Parhelia card which offers what you want!

How 'bout thirteen ?

Also, I think it's quite common for security systems and the like to have a couple or few of these in a system to sport about 16 screens or so.

I have the Matrox Parhelia 128MB sdram model wish it was the 256ddr model but hey I got a great price. I have found out that running three monitors isn't all it's cracked out to be but dual works great and I have two systems running dual monitors.

That guy that hads 13 monitors says there are run on 4 or so computers. How do you run 1 game on 4 computers at one time?

Also, that joystick taht is stuck to the sat looks awsome!

That's an interesting setup with the 13 monitors. He's using for a flight sim program? Wow.
