[simpits-tech] [Spam] Re: FSX

[Ido Dekkers]

it has nothing to do with the TH2G, the TH2G is connected to the computer as
one wide display card, the computer does not know there are 3 monitors
connected to it.

and when you use either SLI or CrossFire you can only use one display port
on the connected cards so you can plug the TH2G to that plug.

mind you if you need more monitors accept for the ones you use with the
TH2G, you'll need another display card.
