wtf?!?
im not even trying to get my gme to work on gts250! I switched card to a more powerful one that can handle 3x full res.
This whole discussion followed one guy telling me that my low res wasnt low enough for him... and now he's even telling me to play on one monitor (yeah, right...)
It was off topics when he said that 2400x800 isnt low, and it's even more off topic when anyone gets fed up by my posts... that are only trying to explain that 2400x600 is as low as 800x600...

But OK, I'm cutting it here. I should never have answered a post that goes "you have an unrealistic idea of waht <insert object here> is"
Something like that cant possibly end up in any other way than a pointless (off topic) discussion.
My bad. I should have seen that coming.

Apparently you didnt do well in math because 2400x3 monitors is7200 X 600x3=1800
which is the same as 2400 x1800 you call that low?? Oh well I guess some of us just are not good with numbers :)

Just to avoid misunderstanding, I am trying to make you understand that you are missing the point boasting about your three monitors because:
- The game does not yet support three views (left, right, centre) like IL2FB for the time being thus your view is limited by half if you try to fly that wide.
- It is good to have three monitors but not good enough if you do not have the hardware to match the demands.

(from somebody who has bene flying IL2FB on three monitors for the last 4 years...)

Oh look! We have Albert Fokk'n Einstein, here. Steve Fokk'n Hawking, even!
Listen buddy, you got it wrong right from the start.

Where you got the 7200 from? When did I say 2400x600 x3 monitors?!?. What I said was 2400x600 = 800x600 x3 monitors!

One of the 2 representations in the picture is wrong. Can you guess which one, Math Genius?

@Athos im not boasing anything. This whole discussion spawned from a misunderstanding (see above).
Also, CoD doesnt have the 3-views thing like IL-2 but unlike Il2 you can zoom out pretty much like you do in FSX or RoF. IN CoD the 'magic' key is called 'Manually Adjust FoV'. That gives me pretty much the same field of vision as I have on IL-2 with Use3Renders=1.

Exactly. The GTS250 did the trick on IL2 but not on CoD, that's why I got the 460GTX. Happy on 3 monitors now.

Heres how it is, 3 monitors driven by 1 video card, you still with me?? Let me know if I'm going to fast for you.

3 monitors @ 800X600 = 2400X1800 total lines drawn. See how easy that was. Now who here is running at 2400X1800 with good FPS??

TeeJay82 04-11-2011 02:32 PM

Old is right... otherwise youd be running 800x200 on each monitor

Backfiring is a bitch :) but hey, everyone can make mistakes

800x600=4:3 is the standard of none widescreens... with your claim it would have been 4:1 wich ive never heard of. 800x200 divide each on 4 and you get 4:1

No, Einstein. it's 2400x600.

With three monitors @ 800x600 each, you can do either 2400x600 (side by side) or 800x1800 (in a pile)
You'd need 9 monitors to do 2400x1800.
If you can't grasp a concept this simple, you probably shouldnt be using a computer in the first place.

I even posted a picture to explain it... looks like there's no hope (what ever happened to the school system?!?)
Just trust me, it's 2400x600, not 2400x1800.

tf_neuro 04-11-2011 06:42 PM

OK, one last try. This should settle it once and for all:

This is what I meant when I said you'd need 9 monitors to do 2400x1800
(hint: as I only have 3 monitors, my setup must be one of the first 2...)


... if this doesnt convince you, I give up.
I won't explain it again.
(in fact, I can't believe im still trying)

CharveL 04-11-2011 10:02 PM

Neuro is right technically on that point but the simple fact is there is three times the work to be done by one video card so even a "low" resolution for a three monitor setup is still comparatively higher than a single monitor setup at native res.

Point being I think that you are asking a bit much trying to run at your native (3x) resolution with the game in it's current state.

I'm really big on a min framerate of over 30 and 60+ avg to enjoy a game but it's tough for me to let go of those cockpit shadows to save FPS from having it on the trees and buildings.
