Sevens Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Hello everyone, I have a triple monitor setup (3 x 27inch monitors) and it worked perfectly out of the box for me with DCS A-10 (I got lucky). I bought a set of Thrustmaster MFCD's and am wondering if I could setup working LCD's for them using Lilliput UM-80's? I apologize if this question has been asked before, I searched the forums and did not find this exact question. Thank you in advance!

ED Team BIGNEWY Posted October 29, 2012 ED Team Posted October 29, 2012 Yes it is possible, but it depends on your system, and if your graphics card can handle the extra monitors. do you want to run 5 monitors ? or just three Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

MTFDarkEagle Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Like Newy asked: what's your system? For the lilliput(s) you need extra video output(s). Lukas - "TIN TIN" - 9th Shrek Air Strike Squadron TIN TIN's Cockpit thread
Hansolo Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 Here is a link to someone who has done it: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=93389 Perhaps a stupid question but with USB monitors does this have any effect on the graphic card. I thought the load would be on the CPU when running USB monitors but I may have gotten that wrong :music_whistling: 132nd Virtual Wing homepage & 132nd Virtual Wing YouTube channel My DCS-BIOS sketches & Cockpit Album
Lumper Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 U-80 is a usb device it does not use a video output. Lumper ------------------------------------------- When the going gets tough, the smart cutout. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Sevens Posted October 29, 2012 Author Posted October 29, 2012 You guys are awesome, thank you for your fast responses! That youtube video is a single monitor setup. I am looking to see if I can use my eyefinity triple monitor setup as well as the two 8inch opertional MFCD's. I have a i7 quad core.....24gb RAM...ATI 6800 video card. 3 x 27in Acer monitors. Thrustmaster Warthog, Thrustmaster Cougar MFD's. I just want to know if I can do it before spending $400.00 on the 8inch displays. Thank you again!

Sevens Posted October 30, 2012 Author Posted October 30, 2012 I just ordered two of the USB displays. I am sure I will be back looking for some help setting them up. This is an expensive hobby!
