Hello I wanted to know how to set up three monitors? I just want a general step by step guide and what I would need besides the monitors to do so.
Thank you.

If you want to have the three screens render as one large image for gaming purposes you will need to use AMD Eyefinity or NVIDIA Surround to accomplish this. Be aware that this isn't really supported by many games, and requires a lot of tinkering to get looking...

Be aware that this isn't really supported by many games, and requires a lot of tinkering to get looking good depending on the game. In any case, to use this you would need an AMD or NVIDIA GPU.

Feel free to follow up for clarification and i should reply.
