Can anyone help answer the following questions... Currently, I am using a ATI 5750 Graphics Card running a flight Simulator/Training Device Software (X-Plane) on one display monitor getting me a frame rate of 35-40 FPS. If I expanded the system to (3) display monitor will the Frame Rate Drop? I do not want the frame rate to drop below 25 FPS. Do I need a faster card? The hardware is HP model p6310y if that helps. (2.8 G, Quad-core CPU) I have upped the power unit to 600W. Also, please keep it simple as I am in the senior age group (60s) Thanks for all your assistants.

If you mean you want to run the game across 3 monitors then yes, framerate will take a nosedive (pardon the pun). However, if you just want to add more monitors for productivity and multitasking in game performance will be unaffected.

Usually these flight sim type games are relatively light on graphics card load, so you could probably get away with a cheap upgrade like a 650ti or 7850 and have it run no problem.
