Hi, I am using 3 monitors at the same time with Nvidia Surround on a Gtx 780. One is an Acer P205H 1600 x 900, the other an hp 2009 1600 x 900, and as my primary a Sony playstation display 1920 x 1080. the resolution when i extend them is 3840 by 1024. I'd like a higher resolution that doesn't look so bad with games. Please Help!

nope, turned the res of the 1920 x 1080 down to 1600 x 900, and set it up, but still the same resolution, is there any way for it to think that all three displays are 1600 x 900 so that i can have a 4800 x 900 resolution or something?

You are getting 3 screens, each as 1280x1024, which is a very common resolution.

My guess is that this is the highest resolution all 6 of Your components will support. (monitor 1 + monitor 2 + monitor 3 + video card in 3-screen-mode + video drivers + game)

You can try to isolate which one is the limiting factor:
1. Does anyone else play that game on 3 screens with better resolution?
2. Does anyone else play that game on 3 screens with better resolution, using the same video card You have?
3. Unplug one of the monitors at a time, see what You get on the other 2.
