Tripple Head 2 Go (TH2G)

Hi, okay, want to go down the TH2G route, i need some advice as well as your opinions (pro and cons) and i have a few questions.

I would go for the new Digital version my first question is would this be okay on 3x 24" monitors?, I currently have 1x 24" Samsung (245B) monitor, so would need to buy 2 more. I've read last year that only 19" monitors are supported, but I think that relates to the VGA version.

i would be using this with rFactor and maybe iRacing if it ticks all the right boxes

Thanks in advance

The digital version is still limited to three 19" 1280x1024 monitors. You can use three 24" monitors but the images will be scaled up and you'd loose picture quality.

Thanks, does anybody have any experience of TH2G with 24" screens?

Since your monitor is wide screen, you'd have to run at 3840 x 800 (3 x 1280 x 800) to avoid images being stretched, and this is significantly lower than the native 1920x1200 resolution of your monitor.

If you want to see what the quality will be like, then just set this resolution on your current monitor now. The worst thing is text becomes blurred and harder to read, but the difference in games is less noticeable.

Thanks, the Digital version (according to the Matrox site) has a max res of: 4080 x 768 (3 x 1360 x 768) I'm kinda hoping that this won't give me that stretched look. with half decent quality
i am also aware of some free software called softTH kegetys.net - SoftTH Software Triplehead that can run any resolution, but that's gonna need a pretty hefty PC and graphics combo to run.

1360x768 is about 16:9, whereas your monitor (like pretty much all wide screen PC monitors) is 16:10, so you'll either get black bars at the top and bottom, or a slightly stretched look. The resolution I posted before is the highest resolution at the same aspect ratio that the TH2G listed as supported on their website.

Edit: 1360x768 is actually 85:48 (16:9.035) :s Odd resolution
