Looking for newer titles compatible with multi-GPU configurations. It appears such setups function best with multi-monitor arrangements as demonstrated in the referenced forum thread.

Are you overlooking something? Multi-GPU support relates to better CPU core usage. This setup uses one GPU as a capture/output device and another for rendering. For years this has been standard. Traditional game engines usually handle only 2 or 4 cores at most. That’s why some games still perform well with higher clocks, while others like ACC focus more on cache efficiency than clock speed. Simulators are shifting attention to VR support rather than multi-monitor setups, which makes sense—they can’t be limited by CPU power even with a powerful processor. In VR, the GPU is the main bottleneck. Multi-monitor gaming support will likely fade soon, and it’s logical—using more monitors doesn’t always improve experience when you can achieve full immersion in smaller, cheaper units.

Several games remain heavily constrained by a single thread, which also helps with this issue. The forum discussion clarifies that each copy can be run on different GPUs, improving performance. For future VR, using two separate GPUs—one for each eye—shows promise. Multi-monitor configurations will remain valuable for years in flight simulators, as they help avoid the drawbacks of not being able to see physical controllers, navigation screens, or buttons. Perhaps a blend of reality could resolve this problem.

This device focuses on enhancing reality through augmented experiences. It's still early stages, yet it shows great potential. You can monitor your real-world controls while staying immersed in the game. The built-in cameras are set to revolutionize gameplay once widely adopted. Multi-monitor configurations remain useful mainly for gaming purposes. Unless VR becomes dominant, the next big leap could come from ultra-wide curved displays with 69:11 ratios. Until recently I used a triple-screen system, but it became unnecessary when I realized the effort wasn't justified. It demands significant hardware power, making it less appealing compared to the current alternatives.
