The problem with bringing on multiple video cards is that the refresh rate drops dramatically and Microsoft has not yet addressed this. I'll probably go the traditional way using Project Magenta. I used the demos with three networked computers each using one card and the performance is acceptable. I suppose I could use a multihead card; however, it'll be the same cost to network two older systems to my primary system so what the heck... Additionally, PM offers substantially greater realism that the standard gauges. Thanks guys!

Thank you. I have been assuming PM is the way to go. On the other hand, having recently seen FSXpand, I though I might be able to save some money. Unfortunately, FSXpand doesn't have appropriate gauges for a 737 other than the EICAS nor is the visual interface very sexy.

I am new to cockpit building and this may be a silly question. However, is it possible with FSUIPC and WideFS to display FS gauges on a computer networked to the primary computer running FS2004? emstar
