2 This graphics hardware can support two TripleHead2Go Digital Edition products, as long as your graphics hardware has two available dual-link DVI outputs. Note that your graphics hardware must have at least 1GB of dedicated memory to support modes above 4320x900 (3x 1440x900) with two TripleHead2Go Digital Edition units connected.
3 Note that the 5760x1080 (3x 1920x1080) mode runs at 50Hz which may be incompatible with some displays. Verify with your display vendor for compatibility.
The "maximum resolution" is defined as the single monitor resolution multiplied by the number of monitors used in a DualHead (two monitor) or TripleHead (three monitor) mode. For example, with DualHead2Go, 2560x1024 is the total resolution across two monitors, each monitor running at 1280x1024 resolution.



it can do 1080p but only at 50 Hz, which means the screen is going to look like a sideshow, it'll kill my eyes

heck even at 60 hz annoys the hell out of me, i usually set my monitors at 75 Hz

just when i finally made the plunge and let the darkside persuade me, and ordered two GTX 690 from ASUS



i was about to place the order for the matrox triple head, when i found that

thanks for all the suggestions thus far Windfire

but things like those from China always gets unsupported real fast, and most times the specs are very sketchy, they advertise something but does something else.

been a victim of that waaaaaaaaaay too many times to recall.

so that's definitely a no no, for such a big setup like this

i rather pay premium for stuff that will remain supported for the next few years


if only Matrox would release an more updated version of their triple head with full 1080p support for North America, then i'll be set

most monitor, TV or whatever they are just Larger and bigger, but the resolution remains at 1080p for the entire 55"

so, yes i've though of that before, getting 2 or 3x 27" or 55" or whatever

but not many supported larger desktop resolution which is what really i'm looking for, a wider bigger work area, when i'm not gaming.

for those few that supports larger resolution prices are like $2000 each TV, vs $600 (100 each monitor) to get the same resolution work space

already verified that, it'll only create mirror (cloned) desktop on 2 monitors
