wwhiteside Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Which is faster guys? Currently running 2 Titans in SLI mode with lots of crashes. I'd like to try TH2Go. Thoughts? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 Get out of SLI Mode Hook up 2 screens to each Titan. Enjoy the views. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwhiteside Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 I can do that and keep my framerates up? where would the additional screen be placed? Laterally? Is it possible to put 1 screen over my center screen so I can see up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted January 25, 2015 Share Posted January 25, 2015 Two Titans should be able to keep up. Try all your screens without purchasing the TH2Go unit. Put the screens right where you would if you were to use the TH2Go. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwhiteside Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 I see, because TH2G and SLI are both a lateral panoramic setup right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Yes, they can be. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwhiteside Posted January 26, 2015 Author Share Posted January 26, 2015 Can you stack 2 in the center and put 1 on each side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 You can physically set up the screens any way you wish. This has nothing to do with the video cards, SLI, or TH2Go. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtp Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Perhaps I can find some help here... I am trying to run 6 screens on 2 Nvidea 780 cards as follows: 3 on a triplehead2go unit dvi on card 1. I have a spare DVI and HDMI on this card that I plan to use (expansion) for a touchscreen overhead and pedestal. I have a second 780 where I have 2x19" monitors that I want to run my PMDG undocked displays on... But I cannot for the life of me get the 2x 19" monitors to work.... SLI or no SLI, the things just won't come up. They are recognized, and in the nvidea utility I can select all monitors through "Activate all displays", but then when I hit apply - no joy. Windows does not see them either. Both cards are recognized by win 7.... The triplehead2go works just fine.... Any ideas??? I can post pictures of the issue if need be. Thanks for any help.

JSKORNA, I purchased a 4th monitor and in the NVIDIA software I can add it over the top of my center screen. How do I bring that above the canopy bow view up in FSX on the 4th screen(UPPER CENTER).

JSkorna Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Create a New View in FS, Undock the window, and drag it to the 4th screen. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwhiteside Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 JSKORNA, thank you. QUESTION 1: Does that mean I do not set the monitors up in NVIDIA in SLI mode as 1 monitor? If so, QUESTION 2: When I go into FSX what is the procedure for building this virtual cockpit by creating a new window, dragging it and getting it to save for the next time? I'm just not quite understanding how to set that up. I can see having the initial normal VC window on screen 1 then I have a monitor on its left, right and above it. QUESTION 3: If I create a new window, drag it up above screen 1(call the this monitor screen 4) I would select Virtual Cockpit. Now I have VC on screen 1 and screen 4 above it. How do I get them to work together and not just the same view on both? Thank you very much, this procedure has m=not been understood by me EVER! :) Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSkorna Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 1. Set them up so they are recognized as 4 monitors. I have never used SLI mode so no help there. 2. Really not sure using VC mode. I only use 2D mode. Others may know. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Look into Nvidia 2D/3D Surround for spreading the VC across multiple screens. http://www.nvidia.ca/object/3d-vision-surround-technology.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 SLI and the TripleHead2Go are not the same thing. SLI is about using multiple video cards together to improve performance, while the TH2Go is just about spreading one image across multiple monitors. The equivalent Nvidia technology to the TH2Go is their Surround feature. Some Nvidia cards can run a Surround setup with a single card, while others need 2, or more, in SLI. http://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/surround http://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/surround/system-requirements (they have a configuration tool here for some setup help) I haven't set this up myself, so you will need to do some more research on how to set it up.

wwhiteside Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Yes thanks Loki. I get that. I have SLI, 3 monitors spanned horizontally. Now I need to know how to add a 4th monitor AND run in full screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
