Three display setup performance

Lots of other games work well with 3 screens though including the old IL2 1946.
Here's an old video I made with a very early version of CLOD. The latest retail patch runs better but its not consistently smooth enough to justify running 3 screens. If you do go down the 3 screen path for CLOD you will need 3GB vram video cards as a minimum as it uses 2.5GB Vram at 6048x1080.

Well the video doesn't look too bad when it comes to performance, was that rendered in real time? What I was planning on doing was setting up a curved screen with three projectors and the setup would naturally be for different kinds of sims, but CloD mostly.

So do you have two GPU's in your setup? Which cards do you have and which settings do you lower to get a smooth fps and how is the fps on those settings (over london, over countryside, over channel etc).
