So, since I have now invested in a Winwing MIP set, primarily for DCS, I am considering a multiple monitor setup. The question is, how many monitors can DCS support? I was thinking that depended mostly on whether I have a system that will run that many monitors, which I do. What I had in mind was three curved monitors side by side, then possibly a fourth monitor ABOVE the center unit. The reason I am wanting to do this is because with the Winwing MIP but without any head tracking, I can set the display so it looks only at the HUD and windscreen. This fits nicely with the MIP below it. Obviously the issue with this is that without head tracking, your vision is limited to directly in front of the aircraft which is not the best scenario for any kind of flying, especially dog fighting. I am hoping a four monitor setup might alleviate some of that problem.

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X @ 4.4ghz, 64gb DDR4 @ 3200mhz, GeForce RTX-3060ti 8GB DDR6, Three KTC 32" QHD monitors @ 165hz, Rosewill 80plus Bronze 1000w, Corsair Hydro H100i, 2tb M.2  SSD for OS, Two 3tb HDD, 2tb SSD for DCS, P3D, Star Citizen, Sound Blaster Zx, Thermaltake Overseer RX-I, Winwing Orion 2 HOTAS F-15EX throttle and F-16EX stick, Winwing 3 MFD MIP with FA-18 UFC and F-16 ICP, TrackIR 5, Surround Speakers & Subwoofer, Oculus Quest 2 VR.

I guess the question that comes to mind given your hardware, can you drive that many monitors at that resolution effectively? And isn't head tracking cheaper? Or eye tracing for that matter? But dcs can drive as many monitors as your PC can.
