Sitting in front of a complete Matrox TripleHead2Go system is perhaps the definition of spoiled, but anyhow it is still a very interesting box by Matrox which with the help of three monitors offers a whole other dimension of gaming or simply a massive working space. Matrox has now updated its TripleHead2Go technology with both better support for dual monitors and wide screen resolutions. All to sport compatibility for those who are about to invest in a TripleHead2Go system. Except from support for widescreen resolutions such as 3840×720 (3 x 1280×720) and 3840×768 (3 x 1280×768) the system now offers support for higher update frequencies which makes it possible for also CRT users to enjoy optimal image quality.
To access the new resolutions and update frequencies you just have to download Matrox TripleHead2Go Mode Expander Tool at Matrox’ website. Below is a complete list of the new modes that have been made available through the new software;
