Na, Use your spacebar as your fire button in the best way.

I'll have to ask and I'll put an edit in when he tells me

You can just run a Dxdiag on his computer, it's build into Windows practically and you won't have to download anything.  That'll give us a general idea.

 

But yeah, that's one hell of a setup, I must say.

Is your mom dating GabeN?

Just 2

If all 8 monitors are running off the same PC then I'm pretty sure they're not in SLI, because in proper SLI, the maximum number of displays that will be supported is 4.

Possibly could be running lots of splitters?

Why would you want half of your monitors displaying the exact same image?

Even if there's an SLI bridge plugged in, it doesn't mean that SLI is enabled in NCP. 

 

I'm quite sure he's right though, you'd have to have SLI off to run 8 monitors, as maximum is 4 monitors per card and SLI on would only allow use of the display outputs on one card, not both. 

Desktop: Intel Core i5 2380P (2400 w/o iGPU), MSI H61, 8GB RAM, 256GB SP610, 500GB WD Blue, HIS R9 280, Antec TruePower Classic 550W, Inwin MANA 134, QNIX QX2710, CM QuickFire Rapid, Logitech G402

 

Laptop: Toshiba Satellite L40D, AMD A6-6310, 6GB RAM, 500GB HDD, Radeon R4 Graphics, 14" 1366x768

 

 

Phone: iPhone 6 Space Gray 64GB, T-Mobile $60/mo 3GB plan
