Question on Dual Monitors
so I have a 34 inch monitor that I want to set up to run the game and then set up another monitor Vertical in portrait mode besides it to surf web, discord/teamspeak. When I do this, Do I play in windowed screen on main monitor so I can go back and forth. I want to be able to view the game when on the other monitor surfing the web etc. I figure on some things like travel, mining , hauling, Drake Herald stuff you will be sitting idle at times so another monitor will be kinda good. Also, if we get some real multi monitor support to put game elements in another monitor.

You must use borderless windowed mode, otherwise alt+tab will be a problem. Also when the focus isn't on SC, you will have no SC sound. Controllers like flightsticks, throttle and TrackIR still work in SC, mouse and keyboard won't.
Be carefull not to leave SC off focus too long, timeout will disconnect you.

Just remember, SLI and Crossfire only work in Full Screen mode

True but in many cases to date, the performance has been documented as subpar with non-SLI/CF.
Of course it depends on a number of factors.
All that should/may/will change over time.
But doubtfully Soon.
I figure the card(s) I purchase post-release will suit my personal requirements (and my pair of 295x2's will move to PCs running other ship stations/accounts/etc.
