Hi im currently using two monitors, I like to play ARMA on one of them and use the other for YT etc. Is there a way to use both monitors without the need to tab out of a game?

 

PS.

I dont want to run ARMA in a window

 

I wasn't sure where this post belonged but if its not here then pls tell me :)

Thanks.

Borderless window is the best option, but most games don't even offer it which is a shame.  However...OP you are playing an FPS, and whether you like it or not you're going to have to alt-tab to access the other screen, or at least go into some kind of settings menu.  If you don't your mouse movement will obviously just turn your character.

Full screen borderless is nice, although it does take a small performance hit.
