(like me, because of headaches)
The streaching effect is pretty much invisible when actually playing, same as seeing something out of the corner of your eye.
You see whats in front of you, but can percieve whats beside you, but just makes the game so, so much more immersive.
Think of driving, you only see the road in front, but you still percieve whats around you.
Screenshot dont show it, playing does.
Hi cmdrs
So, I'm looking for more immersion. I'm looking at the trackIR 5 and am considering triple monitors. I have asked a tech youtuber for some help and would like some feedback from you guys who already have this setup. My present monitor is Samsung S27D39oH 1920 X 1080p. I have GTX 960 4gb card & also have another slot on my board. Please don't mention 4k as a slap in the face often offends...... I do have a budget you know !
Disclaimer: Unless you can find one for less than £300
Blimey ! ...... I really need to get a grip of myself because this might just get out of hand £££££. That Looks a great deal. But i ALREADY have 2 monitors that don't really match up ( colour wise ) samsung & acer). I just bought a 'Ferrera corner desk' ( should just fit inside the ship launched fighters cockpit but may have to get another one for my grandson when he joins me in the anaconda ) and because of it's shape I can't really go beyond 27" for 3 monitors because they wont fit. I tried to get the track IR 5 but flightstore have sold out. I looked on ebay but there are so many people bidding for the remaining few. Amazon have them but are overpriced...... all this just to play Elite ! ...... but hey, it's worth it. Flightstore will email me when they get some more in. VR looks exciting, but i think I'll be waiting towards end of the year before considering that option.https://www.overclockers.co.uk/acer...led-monitor-black-um.uv6ee.001-mo-082-ac.html or save and save and save and...well, you get the idea and get 3 of these. https://www.overclockers.co.uk/asus...en-curved-led-monitor-black-re-mo-089-as.html. You need to save and save as you need 3 Titan x to run them
Now, about that slap in the face

I run pretty high settings, will fire up fraps on my next play and edit* this post with some numbers.
*EDIT: I get about 80-100 in supercruise. 60-80 flying around hubs. 40-50 inside big stations.
On planets it varies a lot, depends on the type of texture, terrain etc. Closing in on the big bases for landing, within 1000 meters, drops the fps to between 22-30. On the landing pad it's back up to 30-40. Flying is generally 30-40 if I'm 2kms over ground. Driving the SRV inside the big bases is also pretty demanding 25-30fps, but increases out in the open.
Generally, this is correct. My 780ti for example, is just as good as a 970. Sad.Waiting for the next great thing is pointless when it comes to electronics.
Just buy what you can afford now an enjoy it. No matter what you get it will be outdated shortly anyway...
One thing that would be nice for triple screen and 21:9 wide screen users is to have the option to have the side screens up without turning to view them
