swimbody Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 As the title says, I have a single large monitor mounted to the wall behind my desk. It works just fine but the desk is rather deep so I was thinking since my VR setup is not the best for MSFS just yet, how about if I add two more monitors to either side of the big boy. I figure I could use two cheap 30in monitors to flank and give immersion. What do you think I should do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperdark Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 What do you think I should do? Get your VR setup sorted and give me your 42" Monitor;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cianpars Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 3 screens might look nice, but ask people running in multi screen what there framerates are. They have to turn the graphics settings down quite a bit even with the best equipment. If the monitors stand on your large desk, then that's fine. The other option would be wall mounts - the ones with arms would probably suit you. What are your CPU and GPU specs?

Hobbitrocks Have you tried VR? if you like it then maybe you don't need all those screens..... I almost went down that route, but then the G2 came out and was a game changer for me.... one big screen is sufficient for me now ... and will all those screens not kill/steal the oomph from the GPU?

swimbody Posted September 27, 2022 Author Share Posted September 27, 2022 Well yes, I have tried VR. I have had an Oculus, Oculus Rift and now the Quest 2 with the link cable installed. It works INCREDIBLY well with DCS and I have zero.zero problems running at max values. On MSFS however, I have to enable the Oculus program running in the background, then I must have the XR kit running as well which is the best tool I've ever seen to help my Quest 2. I have to tweak it a little and have gotten it pretty close but I'm wondering if I need to address the Nvidia settings on the card as well. It's a ton of work when DCS is plug and play with no hiccups. I know, I know, DCS is a sandbox while MSFS is a network based graphics monster.

Hi. I've gone that route in Tracking, Multi monitors, VR, MS and XP ... and ended up getting a good Jstick, Throttle, Rudder, combo and with the proper assignments to you will not need them. Start with the Jstick Twist assigned to View Left / Right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
