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

Thanks for the replies.

Well we don't yet know what BoB would like, but I haven't bought the GC yet (which is why I'm asking this question anyway) and I anticipate getting a fairly quick card. A 27" (with high res) should require less processing power than Eyefinity anyway (less total resolution).

Well with standard IL2, you have wide, normal and gun view, and I switch between them a fair bit. Having a larger screen will allow you to see the wide picture and have to zoom in less. I don't know if SoW will allow an even wider view, which would suit large monitors, but if not, then I agree with you. I would like more view, and depending on the SoW settings, a larger monitor might give you more vertical view for a given physical size (ie, if the size of your gun site is an inch on your screen, a larger monitor will give you more vertical view than 3 small monitors). Not sure if Oleg has commented on the view settings.

YouTube has some good vids on eyefinity and IL-2.

I've been on youtube searching for eyefinity IL2 this morning, and came up short. I saw a lot of Dirt2 demos though.
