Hi all,

I'm interested in this product for gaming but wanted to ask the following questions:

1. It looks like when you turn your head left or right that you then have to move your eyes in the opposite direction to see the change on screen. Is this uncomfortable?

2. Is the TrackIR 5 worth using on a 3 monitor setup versus 1?

Thanks

NoShow,

Two good questions. I'll do my best to help.

You can scale the tracking so you aren't trying to turn your head and view the screen at extreme angles. After setup it should feel natural and should not cause any strain. If you are having any issues like that, please reach out to us and I'll help you personally set up a profile that works well for you.

I actually use it on both. I have three screens at work running 5760x1200 and at home I run one large screen currently at 1920x1080. It works on both amazingly well. Regardless of how many screens I can't play without it anymore. It adds to the experience regardless of how many monitors you have.

Having said that, you may need a different profile if you are using triple monitors over a single monitor. Mainly to account for the extra width, but as I said previously we are always able to help with that.

Please let me know if there are any more questions that I can answer for you.

Regards,
