Can I run FSX smoothly on mulitiple monitors with this?

I believe so. i have 3 monitors hooked up although I'm not into gaming. I use them for Video editing. However, the Nvidia software helps you configure the positioning and setting of monitors. Take note that you'll need a DVI-D to VGA adapter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00C93JQXS/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)

Yes you can. Just use the different display ports. Some say you need a active adapter if you are going with eyefinity. I do not use mine for eyefinity so I cannot confirm this. http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2168652/290-run-triple-monitor-setup.html

It has 4 ports (2 DVI, 1 HDMI, 1 Display Port) so technically you can but I've personally been taught that for more than two monitors you should run two cards.

I currently run 5 monitors (3 evga, 1 thunderbolt, 1 macbook pro built in) off of a Radeon HD 6750M. It works fine for non-gaming, the only noticeable effect is that the screen savers across all the monitors get just a bit choppy.

I believe the answer is indeed no. Don't have the technical terms at my fingertips, however I've been running lots of monitors with various graphics cards for years. In the end it seems to always comes down to the number of GPU's when running HDMI, DVI, or even older VGA monitors. I believe there is a technical limitation that you can only run 2 HDMI/DVI/VGA monitors per GPU. Since this only has 1 GPU, you can only run 2 non-DP monitors. You could however, run 2 HDMI and then more DP monitors at the same time. For me I just used all DP monitors and it has been working great for business apps etc. I believe the answer is indeed no.

You can only use 1 at a time. I am not sure how the adaptor will pick which port has priority but I know the full size display port has priority over the DVI port. The frame rate is perfect. This is not a USB port so the mini display port is like having an extra DVI, Display or HDMI port on the computer. Your Video Card will need to support the number of Monitors you plan to use. I have a Nvidia K1000M and it supports up to 3 monitors. I am using the 2 built in ports on my computer plus this for a total of 3 monitors.

I'm pretty sure you could do that with any video card that supports multi monitors. The ram on the card only really helps GPU intensive games.

I've got one 4K monitor and two 1920x1200 hooked up simultaneously and it's driving them all just fine. I don't do gaming though so if you're asking performance-wise, I couldn't say.

Yes. You can run up to 3 (verified) monitors at a time the HDMI and two dvi.

This card can easily support two monitors using any two of its outputs. With DisplayPort cabling you can run up to 6 I believe.

YOU BETCHA! Running (2) Gigabyte 280X's on three monitors! It truly is one of the better 990FX boards out there.

Yes. Dual monitors should work fine provided you use any 2 of the three interfaces (DVI, HDMI, VGA). Using three monitors seems to have been an issue for some, and using 2 monitors with same interface/cable would require an adapter and *might* cause an issue. Just use one DVI and one HDMI and you will be fine! That being said...if you plan on doing anything more than watching video or playing VERY simple games (like puzzle/adventure games or old school DX9 games) then I have to agree with KYle -- buy a cheap graphics card. The nice thing about this new board is it is cheap,rock solid(so far), and allows you to make that upgrade down the line when you have more cash.

I can't say. I'm one Win7 and one XP, with one VGA and one DVI monitor. Sometimes the mouse is very choppy after switching, but it seems to resolve itself quickly. Just a short, minor nuisance. It's not perfect, but I'm not unhappy with it. Call the mfr with your question. They were helpful and knowledgeable when I called.

Sure does, I'm running 3 at 5760x1080. It will support up to 4 monitors total.

Everything I've read shows FSX works well through Windows 7. I have tried to make it work in Windows 8/8.1 with no luck. Runs well for about 10 minutes then crashes, youtube had some fixes but none have worked for me. Right now FSX is a door stop for newer systems it is not supported any more, so I went to X-Plane 10 North American region, it works well and is supported with continual updates. Good luck and best of luck!!!!! Oh by the way FSX is 32 bit and will only use 3 meg of memory no matter how much you have in your machine, X-Plane is 64 bit and will use all the memory you have and will use the GPU graphics chip more when you tax the simulator with detail.

I'm running 4 @ 1920x1080 and all are 24 inches and up with very few issues. Make sure your power supply is at the upper end of the spectrum, I have to unplug my monitors when I reboot which is a little irritating, but it seems related to the power supply and nothing else. Also pay close attention to the listed issues with DVI / HTMI / Display Port.

My husband seems to be able to do the 25 man LFR's without an issue. I think he is using a medium graphic setting. I'm not sure of the composition of the rest of your computer, but you may need to consider more memory as well.
