Good day!

Thank you for taking the time to read this I hope you can help.
This is a question for you users that have a three plus monitor setup.

I very much like flying IL2 1946 and Rise of Flight, both are combat flight simulators.
I also use TrackIR. http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/

I would like to go to a three monitor setup.

Just the other day I saw a video where the user was flying IL2 with three monitors.
What was different was the two outside monitors; they were 17" and turned on their side, rotated portrait.
The setup was 17"(1024x1280) | 24"(1920x1200) | 17"(1024x1280)

I have been an avid NVIDA user for years but once upon a time I did use ATI.
I have two NVIDIA cards below that I'm thinking about upgrading to.
However ATI does have Eyefinity????

Please any advice or suggestions to which path I should take would be appreciated.

No help yet-- Perhaps that was too much? Try this.. My main issue at the moment is selecting the correct side monitors for a PLP setup. Can I just buy any two monitors for the the side or it there something more with the setting (Color, Ratio, Response, Bright, Resolution) that I need to watch so that they work properly with my ASUS ASUS VE258Q screen?
