Unless you have an old slow computer, you probably don't need to do it this way.

What do you have now?

OK, Your system must be good enough.

I have this running on one computer with one video card.

Not shown in that picture is a DesktopAviator GPS that I added later. That makes a total of six monitors, not counting the Saitek instrument panel.

So I guess that you system can't handle another monitor? If that's the problem, there are easier & cheaper solutions.

Read this - Who wants another monitor!

And this - A minor update on the Plugable USB to VGA adapter.



The FPS isn't bad either.
