Has anyone tried a GT 5 triple monitor set up yet ?

I know it takes 3 separate game systems each running a GT5 game disc...just wondering ???

I've seen Youtube videos of it, but I've never seen it in person.
I suppose we could technically try it at your place if you had 3 monitors and two other people brought over their PS3s and GT5.

It's definitely how we should run the next 24hr race! 8)

Hmmm...GT5 will handle up to 5 monitors...WOW!!! :o

It uses the center monitor as the "server" and you input the IP address into the other ones to activate...kinda like the Iracing...NO!

Great write up here....

Well...it's up and running in Multi-monitor mode...and it's pretty good so far...couple of glitch's but nothing too bad.

A bit of a head ache to up date all the software to the same number and I am still working on the extra screens set ups but I will just keep tweaking and see what happens.

I have had one screen lock up on me when I hit a wall at high speed...could be machine related.

....and away we go..... :twisted:

You are soon going to need your own power station to run all the sim racing gear, hehe
