Im curious to see if my 3gb gtx 780 sc could handle 2 more 1080p monitors. I found the same 28in monitor I have now locally for 50 bucks and another on ebay for 30 bucks with 2 days left and Im tempted to buy them. Anyone?
Funny you say that because that was my plan. It works out cheaper than 3 monitors. But when I saw this monitor for 50 bucks I thought why notHold it for the OCULUS! ;-)
Yeah I know what you mean... and honestly $100 for other two monitors sounds a pretty fair deal. The added value from price/immersion would be absolutely worth it... but you know, with the Rift incoming pretty much those monitors will be sitting in your house dusting alone (unless you have a better use or you find someone willing to buy them).Funny you say that because that was my plan.

lol man its like youre in my head. I actually just bought 5000 vrps from the store lol. and I just got a racing seat to start building my rig in the basement. Maybe you have a point. My buddy wants to sell me his th8rs shifter for pretty cheap so maybe ill get that. He just made me a button box so dont need the bottons on the g27 shifter as much anymore. your advice makes sense. I might still get the monitor though because i can use it as a spare.Yeah I know what you mean... and honestly $100 for other two monitors sounds a pretty fair deal.

So I'd upgrade maybe my other hardware with those extra bux (better pedals/shifter? A Buttkicker? )
Or, I'd use it to purchase something I like from R3E Store...
Or maybe just save 'em for later: Oculus will cost $100 less!
hmm that sounds promising. thanks for the replyI gtx 780 should run it quit easily....I ran triples 24" with a gtx 670 2 gb and it was fine on max setting now I run a r9 290 4gb and have been considering going back to nvidia as Iam finding amd to be strue going a bit in newer racing titles....great in other genres
I'm running triple Qumi Q2 projectors on 46" screens off of an EVGA 780ti ACX. Runs great for me.
If the avatar of yours reflects your actual seat and cabinet with steering wheels... I don't wanna see your setup cause otherwise 99% I'm gonna throw myself down the trash chute screaming: I REFUSE (myself) TO LIVE WITHOUT A RIG LIKE THAT!!!I'm running triple Qumi Q2 projectors on 46" screens off of an EVGA 780ti ACX.

Oooooh, you gotta post a picture of your set up. I've thought about projectors for some time now. Must be super immersive.
