I believe you can.  It may drop your FPS a little though.

Gunnerman,

Yes... you can hook up multiple monitors.  How and for waht depends on what you are trying to accomplish.  Most high end video cards support two monitors.  You can "undock" various simulator windows and place whatever you want on each monitor.  Or you can also use a LAN to network multiple machines.

The are a few posts on this topic down in the "Homebuild Cockpits Forum".... and I think also some located in the old "Hardware Forum" pages.

best,

.................john
