Tom's Hardware Reviews Multi-Display Gaming

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the getting-just-a-little-crazy dept.

MikShapi writes "Most gamers out there today own a dual-head graphics card (most of us completely neglecting the second port), and games such as X2 are offering support for this already (at least on nVidia cards, due to the "span" driver feature). Tom's Hardware did a nice rundown on the technology, complete with screenshots and benchmarks."

    half the world hasn't even made a phone call and many are dying of starvation - do you really need an extra screen to play games?

    This is serious, against this dual-screen "news for nerds" I propose that it can be countered by "stuff that matters" people are dying and disadvantaged - consider them for a few moments please.

      Because he's a jackass?

      For fuck's sake, this is a site called "news for nerds," not "your liberal guilt clearinghouse." If he can't have a discussion about a subject without seeing if it passes the "is this more important than a starving child" test then he needs to be out there *helping* those starving children instead of whining about it here.

    Perhaps. Perhaps you are also a fat dork, and only 14 socially retarded Lunix nerds in the world care enough to laugh at your sad joke.
