use same fps to sync characters

I run all my clients in a 4 corners setup at 1280x768 on a 30 in monitor running 2560x1600 res.

My system is:
i7-950
2 GTX 580's in SLI (I am running them in SLI)
12 GB Ram
240GB SSD (all clients running from the SSD)

All clients are set to run at a max of 30 FPS. Text displays better for me when running in fullscreen instead of the two windowed options (it was very jagged and hard to read in either). I am pretty happy with this setup, but I could see people having issues with 4-corners on smaller displays that can't do resolutions above 1920x1200.

Hey guys, im planning on running quad characters on D3, but i was a little concerned about how well i would run it.
I have an i7-920@3.6ghz, 12gig DDr3-1600mhz, 3x 6950's, and 3x 24" LCD Monitors. After reading some of the replys i think im safe.
I didnt get a chance to test ISBoxer when in the beta unfortunately, otherwise i would be a little more confident.

Just thought id post saying Thanks for the info

Cheers.

Your specs should be more then fine, but I don't understand what you mean by quad-corners and then go on to mention 3 24" monitors.

Just listing what i had. But at any time, if it does run really well i could go on to do full screen for primary display then chuck the rest on another monitor.

I was curious if anyone has tried running 4 games with at least one of them using medium(or high) graphics settings, and what their hardware setup was like? I was able to get 4 games running with my current hardware but only on the lowest settings for all of them. Ideally I would like to have my main screen (1920x1080) with one window running at somewhat higher graphics settings and then 3 smaller windows running low. I was wondering if anyone has done this type of setup and what type of graphics card(s) they were running.

Another idea I was ironing out was setting up a widescreen monitor vertically and using this for all 3 of the smaller screens. This way I would have them all at the same distance from the main screen, and I think they would be less neglected and easier to keep an eye on. Anyway, my thoughts were 1920x1080 vs 1920x1200. For the 1080 screen I think it would add up to be 3 screens at 1080x608, leaving 96 unused screen pixels vertically. On the 1200 screen they would be set at 1200*675, putting me over on size by 105 ish. Probably not a big deal, but I was wondering if anyone had pros or cons to the two setups.

Thanks,
Sam

In my quad setup the main ran at 2560x1600 with all settings maxed while the others ran on low. I started with the remaining 3 on seperate monitors then tried them on a single, each has its benefits but both are definitely doable.

If you're worried about hardware limitations just stick them on one and scale them way down. Vram is a pretty big concern, so adjust to what your setup allows you to play smoothly.

I diabled the limiter on the main's framerate and set the others to 30. It usually runs around 150fps avg without vsync and a stable 60 with, so it can definately be done, even at super-high resolutions.
