OK, it's bought and built.  Loaded the 64bit version of windows7,  and having problems getting the SoftTh software to work for AH and Half-life(I may have to reload with the 32bit version).  Other than that, working out pretty good.






If you do that you're only going to see a shade over 1Gb of system RAM because your video cards are eating all the allocation.  If you need to go to 32 bit you're probably going to want to get rid of one of those cards and even that's only going to leave you with about 2Gb of system RAM.

Yes.. the LAST thing you want to do is revert back to 32 bit software.  It just won't work with your configuration.

SoftTh is all but abandonware right now... the author isn't spending time updating it because he's waiting to see how Eyefinity and Nvidia's "Vision Surround" technologies will fare.  I would say either invest in triplehead to go, or see if you can find a beta download of Nvidia's version of eyefinity.

Newest card drivers did the trick!  Only able to check it out for a couple of minutes. Ran 3 screens with everything maxed fps 100-145.  Woooot!
