i can't believe this is running at all though the impressive thing is how
flippin well this is running considering that we're at three times 4k being able
to like see everything like that yeah it's awesome a few short years ago
running aaa games at 4k required multiple graphics cards like this to get
anything close to 60fps well guess what
now we're flipping the script we're gonna run there it is
multiple 4k monitors on a single
graphics card
and you know what i've actually got a really good feeling
about this lg who sponsored this video sent over three of their ultra gear 27
gn 950s to try it out these things are a
real hot item right now 4k ips panel 144hz and the lightning fast 1
millisecond rated pixel response times dang that's perfect for driving games
like squadrons well no squadrons isn't a driving game
it also isn't like that cool anymore it's all about cyberpunk now so it's
perfect for atmospheric games on me on me perfect squadron's like squadrons
there's atmospheric you're in the atmosphere okay we'll play squadrons on it yes
yes uh is that graphics card okay oh yeah yeah yeah this i i did that totally
on purpose this is a dummy GPU
multi-display setups have been a mainstay of high-end pc gaming for well
basically as long as pc gaming has been a thing but it used to be super hard to
do like the triple monitor mode for the original doom required three networked
pcs one for each monitor these days it's a
little simpler we only need one pc but
it does have to have some pretty serious horsepower so we've gone with a ryzen
5900x that's a 12 core processor we've
got 64 gigs of 3200 megahertz ddr4
memory got a nice fat knock to nhd15 cooler up in here and of course for
graphics we've gone with the ASUS rog strix rtx 3090 what makes this card
uniquely suitable for what we're doing today is exactly the same thing that
makes it suitable for gaming at 8k so it's not actually that much faster than
an rtx 3080 in terms of raw speed but what it has is 24 gigs of vram which is
really important for running at very high resolution and triple 4k
is obviously three times the pixel count
of 4k and actually it's about it's only 75
as much as 8k so while ak pushes this
card to its limit and it's only like sort of
doable this might actually work really well as
long as we don't use a dummy card of course we can't run triple 4k
monitors without meeting well at least one of the 4k monitors we'll be using
today the ultra gear 27 gn
950. honestly i'm so glad lg sponsored
this because that's the only way to get your hands on these things
they're not in stock anyway they're out of stock everywhere and that's totally
understandable we've seen such a leap forward in gaming monitor technology
over the last year or so that it totally makes sense to me that so many people
are upgrading right now i mean what does it not freaking have it's 4k it goes up
to 144 hertz which as we've shown in the past does deliver a noticeable tangible
performance improvement to the gamer it's got vasa display HDR 600
certification so it works with HDR 10 content it's got support for both AMD
freesync and it's g-sync compatible and
the biggest one is that all of that comes without sacrifices to color
accuracy or pixel response times it's
rated for one millisecond which if we're being honest is not freaking how that
works in the real world but it's really darn good and because it's
ips you get to enjoy accurate colors
while you're gaming rather than like washed out ugly colors like we got from
the tn gaming monitors of days past so
you've got a single usb 3 type b that gives you two more ports DisplayPort
and HDMI in and another one of those as well as a headphone jack and power in
now i just need two more of them well now it's up to me to finish the setup uh
here we go we already had the other monitors
unboxed because it's like that cooking show kind of magic it's already ready
pre-cooked yeah we have the monitors pre-cooked because these things actually have pretty thin bezels when you line
them up just right hopefully the idea is they're gonna be
pretty seamless as far as three monitors go i gotta have it perfect if i'm gonna
pawn noobs and squadrons if Linus lets me play squadrons
looks pretty good i was all excited brought the hotas over
the thrustmaster t1600m i guess Linus is
more excited about cyberpunk and i am too
but what i'm really excited about is try squadrons because that's what you that's
a that's what yeah that's why you do a triple monitor setup cyberpunk still only have two eyes
most of the time so what do you now for the moment of truth
we find out if it still turns on if it doesn't it's not my fault
i didn't break anything change resolution change that refresh rate 144
ah there it is oh yeah now you need display stream compression in order to
run 144 hertz at 4k over a single
displayport 1.4 link fortunately rtx
3000 series and Radeon 6000 series gpus
do support this feature and so does this monitor i should be very careful with
that Radeon like old 6000 series ones do
not the new six thousand the new six thousand how many six thousand series
are there uh at least three for AMD there was the x eight hundred there's a
nice six you're not having an old man moment right now we gotta play some games
all right let me figure it out then no no i got it all right i can fix all the
tech tips it works it's 1152 by 2160.
that's a lot of pixels and then we just got to turn on HDR how do you think the
how do you like the alignment i think you did a great job riley
my knees are a little small yeah we knew there was some way to if only there was
some way to make them more comfortable lttstore.com CPU pillow oh there we go
perfect i'm still going to get you a chair though what why is it doing this whole thing press space but it looks so
cool what look how stylish it is you've played this game like four times now so
i didn't have time to uh configure cyberpunk it may also just not like you
and it may also be that we should just play squadrons so here's the thing about
surround gaming brand new games tend not
to target this very tiny demographic this does not
appear to have been validated in any meaningful way so i guess we'll play
squadrons press like where the a button would be on this is freaking awesome
what well just like being able to see everything like that yeah it's awesome
oh boy this might be too this might be too complicated for me to just jump in
boost uh boost what's uh okay boost yeah there we go we're boosting drift we're
boosting oh right it's like this now oh wow oh we hit a thing
in game 104 frames per second at 4k
times 3. is that for real that is freaking nuts yeah we're at like
high-ish medium-ish should we just crank it i think volumetric quality has to be
at medium oh hello
did it oh i might crash the desktop yep so one quirk that i've discovered by
reading something that someone else discovered online is that when you're
doing a triple monitor setup in squadrons volumetric quality has to be
set to medium even if everything else is set to ultra or high or whatever it
doesn't matter or fleet battles and practice mode won't work with treble
monitor setup so that's a tech tip ultra
volumetric quality medium ultra ultra we're still getting 100 FPS
are you kidding me okay let's spawn in an enemy squadron oh my okay so this is
hard with the hotes this is actually the first time that i've
fought against enemies using a hotes
oh i got them well we got it working i
i guess this doesn't look super great i feel like there's some field of view
adjustments we need to make but uh we can't make the field of view adjustments
because i can't the menu seems to be
screwed up uh we are running at 40
something frames per second when i'm moving around a lot oh
okay i thought that was a glitch it was a tutorial there's kids just walking
around in night city unsupervised why does this one look like an old man you
got cyberpunk it's working Linus wow uh
so like turns out the menus are bork oh yeah in cyberpunk yeah when i sent it to
8k it broke as well oh okay you can't see anything but if you press
the arrow keys you can see that the options are
hey there it's wide putin actually it's more like wide kim jong-un
in a perfect world we'd want the field of view to be a little wider yeah but
the impressive thing is how flipping
well this is running considering that we're at three times 4k i was gonna ask
you because i don't even know what graphic setting this is at this is not
ray traced this looks like maybe medium
if i had to guess medium or high i think this is going to be high texture quality
because these look like garbage like you can't even read them at medium textures
i can't believe this is running at all though like it's pretty wild oh no it's
happening right random citizens are doing a citizen's arrest
okay you're a monster man it is so nice when games are
designed with multi monitor in mind
that's why we saved this for last you guys because this is freaking sick you
know what let's just let's just leave it on automatic sounds good to me this is
freaking awesome see this is what it's supposed to look like not all stretched
out on the side so when you find games that support it properly
it is a total immersion changer and the
fact that we are running this at 56 frames per second right now just like
native resolution triple 4k this is
man it's wild with a game like this the thing is that if you're running g-sync
you can see so much of what is coming out ahead of you that you don't need
like a 100 it's not like a twitch shooter or something you don't need 120 frames per
second totally so this is a pretty great experience because
g-sync or freesync goes a long way towards smoothing out even lower frame
rates would you still say it's a pretty great experience even though you're like in last uh i am not in last sir
there's definitely cars behind me riley there are now there
um yeah i was not that was not real smooth that was you're a regular david
beckham uh different sport different sport okay
we're in the cockpit oh you're definitely in that cockpit this is HDR
af ladies and gentlemen so it's supposed to look dark they're supposed to be that
contrast not everyone likes it it's not necessarily the best for competitive
play but if it's more like you just want to have the experience of
you know driving around on a race track then i want to feel like charles barkley
yeah gwen gretzky
so that's it guys is triple 4k gaming
possible yes is it going to cost an inordinate
amount of money also yes but what i love
about it is you know what happens with technology
it tends to go down in price and up in speed so if we're doing this today
it's coming and lg is leading the charge so you guys can check out lg's ultra
gear monitors down in the link in the video description thanks to lg for
sponsoring this video thanks to you guys for watching if you want to see more
cyberpunk we actually played cyberpunk completely maxed out on an 8k tv
incidentally also from lg we're gonna have that video linked down below as
well
