you cant spell stupid w/out SIU
i picked up another 17"CRT almost identical to my first for $2 awhile ago...

any games out there that can take advantage of both screens?

there are PLENTY of proggy's i use that will benefit greatly, but no games yet...

(btw im picking up KOTOR this week, thanks for the suggs. in the other thread)
 
that i know of there really arnt any games that use both... I have dual monitors too, and i love it for everything else, but its not that useful for gaming. Except for monitoring other things while you game.
 
It isn't the memory that is an issue then, your CPU is also maxed out slowing down both. I thought that BF games used both, as in one was a play screen and the other was a stats/map screen?
 
FS = FlightSimulator (MSFS2k4)

The only cool game I know of that runs on dual monitors is X2:the threat. BUT . . . you gotta have a Nvidia card and ur system gotta be buff. Like 5950 buff. It's a flight/space sim game, like Elite/Privateer/Earth and Beyond...etc. But it looks amazing. There's a playable demo out there and a guide on Tomshardware about how to set it up for dualscreen. Might be worth a spin.
