pc game on two monitors?

Q. I have two monitor on my gaming pc. Whenever I start playing a game it loads it on the right side monitor. I want to move it to the one on the left because is is bigger but I am unable to figure out how. Any advice would be welcome.

Answer
Graphics card?

If using nVidia you can open the nVidia Control Panel and under 3D setting you can select which monitor you want select programs to load to.
To get to nVidia Control Panel just right click anywhere on your desktop and it should be on the menu.

Other things you can do is go to Start Menu, click Control Panel, Display, and change your primary monitor being that games by default load to the primary.

Some games have this option in their GameNameConfig.exe file

HELP PC MONITOR GAMING?!?!?!?

__-__-__

if i want to use that cable to play on my pc monitor does it matter how fast your pc actually is? in other words does the computer tower even matter how fast it is? cuz my pc is rlly slow but i want to play on my monitor would that affect the quality at all????

Answer
the only thing a monitor do that matters is to whether it can display graphic and the resolution it support, the actual processing.. and output of how good, and the detail, how smooth it is, and how many frames per second it can process is happen inside that tower case of yours specifically your graphic card (RAM, and processor does help too but VGA is usually the real deal) so.. hell yes it matter how fast your pc actually is...

A good gaming monitor for someone on a budget?

good pc gaming monitor image

Carson

I need a gaming monitor and I have found an excellent 'BenQ' monitor. However, it was out of my budget, around $300. My desk isn't the biggest so it would be nice if it is smaller. The price range im hoping to get one for is around $150, if they have a decent gaming one for that price. Thank you!

Answer
I use Sony Playstation 3D display. I play PS3 and my pc games on it all the time. It's also good for watching movies.It also works with Cable TV. It comes with 3D glasses and a ps3 game. Not sure if that's what you're looking for. It's a 24" display with full HD and I think that the price is around 200 or so. I got it last year on a sale for 100 and I like it. If you don't have a ps3, you could sell the game and glasses. Hope I helped

How do play pc games on an optimum resolution?

Gregory

I have my monitor set on an optimum resolution (1920 -1080) and its all fine until i enter a pc game which will usually change this (im guessing due to lack of graphic memory or such) and make the game unplayable. Sometimes i cant access the in game options menu to adjust this. Is there a way to adjust it outside of the game itself P.s most of my games are run via steam if that helps! Cheers :)

Answer
No.

Each game starts in what it determines to be a "common denominator", i.e. lowest settings.

Older games are even STUCK in low resolution, having never gotten any upgrades to allow higher res.

Some 3D games have mods or special manual edit settings that can add such config, but it's not always available.
