3 Monitors and Pwnboxer

[Mega]

Hi everyone,

I started multiboxing just from a couple of months (running a team of 5: 2 Pallys and 3 Hunters) and I really love it! I have a question about multiple monitor configuration.

I currently have a 22" monitor and I was thinking to buy 2 more so to enjoy a total "playing field" of 5040x1050. Now, am I right to assume that if my desktop size is 5040x1050, Pwnboxer will span my WOW windows across that same screen size, i.e. acting as if there was one big monitor?

Thanks
Mega

Hey there,

Pwnboxer supports quite a few monitors, but you're going to want to put a max of 1x WoW on each monitor. It won't span 1x WoW and split it up between multiple monitors simply because doing so would crush video cards when multiboxing due to how load is distributed.

So for me, I've used 3x monitors (even 4) when multiboxing. I would put my main big ones on their own monitor, and then multiple on the other. From what I recall last time I did this, I put my tank on its own monitor, healer on its own, and other 3 on 1 monitor. Worked flawlessly.

Thanks for the advice. When I add the other 2 monitors I will definitely try your configuration and maybe play around with some others too!
