My Setup:
1. 3 17" LCD monitors
2. 2 PCI-E video cards
3. PowerStrip software
I use powerstrip software to trick eve thinking my monitor running at 3840x900.
Do search on powerstrip here on eve forum, there is a guide on how to do that.

i was looking at the triplehead2go and 3 27'' dell monitors...is it now not worth borthering since eve wont work with it?
can anynone shed some light on this?
TripleHead2Go Will work, it have a setting to make all 3 screen to span into single desktop.
The downside is the FPS(frames per seconds) will drop, you may notice a little studder once awhile in certain area. ( I don't mind since it's playable).
Note: The Higher the Rez you go the lower the FPS will fall.
Spanning far as 3840rez or more will notice a grafx strecth on the left and right monitor but the center monitor will look fine. I think the maximum EVEO grafix engine max at 1280 or 1600rez then beyone that will strecth. (Thats ok for me, I just want some of my in game windows such as local chat, market, contract, etc open on the sides away from main view for action.)

Clearly we need an eve "desktop container" similar to Photoshop/etc where the information windows can be undocked from the game window. This would allow those who are looking for a more Flight-Sim style experience where the main game viewport isnt cluttered.
Desktop Container would be awesome but it will have to be in windowed mode and will lose FPS and all. We will not see this in a very long time. But like the M$ flight simulator that you can assign instrument or views on certain monitors would be awesome as well.
This type of program will require heavier PC, as CCP are trying to keep the files small and less power hungry and playable on low end PC instead of us spending large ammount of funds upgrading PC.
Right now adding 2 or more monitors is a way to go.

Originally by: Revolution Rising Synergy Should be mentioned also.
allows sharing of keyboard/mouse etc.. between computers over the network - works on linux and windows and is interoperable between os's.
I have a windows laptop with 2 monitors on it and a linux machine giving me 3 monitors, 2 computers running 2 clients (no slow-down for 2 clients is also a bonus).
You have to run in windowed mode (on windows) with eve-mon and it works beautifully.[/quote
I have been using Synergy for long time, its an awesome program which control 2 laptops from single PC.
Here are the suggest programs that I have been using.
> Synergy - http://synergy2.sourceforge.net
(for controlling multiple PCs)
> PowerStrip - http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/ps.shtm
(for adjusting monitor resolution*read carefully may damage your monitor, dont blame me*)
> Maxivista - http://www.maxivista.com
(for using more than 4 monitors, 2nd pc may be required)
Thats all for now, any suggestion?
link your gamestation on multimonitors 3 or more.
