Wookiee,

Since you already have 2 monitors, you can test it by hocking up one monitor to the P8H77 and the other to the Nvidia card.

polarbear,

The Windows (7) screen resolution setting enables you to drag the multi monitors setup to match the physical layout.

But what if I wanted one to actually be turned 90 degrees Vertical. So it's tall rather than wide. That's actually what I meant.

Yes, there is also an orientation setting to do that.

ooh nice! exactly. good to know it does do it if i wanted to. it's a thought i had recently but never actually seen it implemented.

anyone here ever try that before? it seems like it would be a cool way to see a lot of tracks at once....

Yes, I would like to have one of my display to do that as well, especially for viewing PDFs, but none of my existing monitor stand enables me to rotate it that way.

My multi-monitor stand has two arms that can be adjusted for vertical, so I'd probably use one for vertical, one for horizontal and then just the other horizontal monitor standing on its own stand.

Yea. It's happening. Probably not till this time next year though haha.

Thanks Albert I actually have a couple of spare monitors knocking around so I will probs give it a try.

Just my two cents for anyone doing multi-monitor, special with laptops.
Last two gen NVIDIA drivers will get you really high DPC spikes, over 600ms, while AMD cards wont even get to 100ms... When adding more monitors specially with NVIDIA keep an eye on DPC values ;)
