What looks best for IL2 (& therefore SoW) - 3 22" screens, or 1 27"?

You will have 5760x3060 resolution.People who has three monitors use to have 2 or 3 SLI setup and this is $erious business...

A squadmate is running 3x22" monitors on a single 5850 in eyefinity. Depending on the card model ofc the main reason to why most Nvidia guys run 2-3cards in multi screen setups are mostly the lack of outputs. Even a GTX260(which is still a good card) can run triple monitors alone with a TH2Go set. It's when you start messing with multi-24"> @ 1920x1200/1080 each, that things start to get really demanding.

Ofcourse, it's never wrong to have the extra horsepower but what you really need and what people think you need are often two different things.
