How to play forza horizon4 with triple screen
Hello,
I have single 4k monitor but can I play forza horizon4 with virtual triple screen if I buy 2 headless ghosts?

Want to play with 1080p x 3ea / 60hz
with stable framerate.

Kindly let me know whether it is possible or not. I use 6700k/1080ti/32gb ram and pimax 5k+

Thanks

As long as Forza supports playing across 3 monitors without using Nvidia surround then yes it would work.

How do you think about frame rate? will it be stable?

I’m not familiar enough with Forza to know oh well it scales with multiple monitors. Assume Virtual Desktop adds a 5-10% overhead.

For anyone that finds this issue later like I did, you can use "Windowed Borderless Gaming" to achieve 3x screens without Nvidia Surround.

Install it, or extract the app somewhere and run it, then edit the FH4 config file.
The location of the FH4 config file is:
C:\Users\<USERNAME>\AppData\Local\ForzaHorizon4\User_PCLocalStorageDirectory\ConnectedStorage\ForzaUserConfigSelections\UserConfigSelections

Edit the lines below, in my case I'm using 3x 1080p monitors, put in your own values:
<ResolutionWidth value="5760"/>
<ResolutionHeight value="1080"/>
<Fullscreen value="0"/>

When you run the game, the initial screen always runs as a single monitor, then it switches itself to triple (as specified in the config) so don't freak out when its not at first. Wait a minute for the intros to finish.

When the game goes wide, right click Windowed Borderless Gaming and select "Add Window (F3)" then select the game window again and press "F3".

Windowed Borderless Gaming should pick this up and pop up with a profile creator, it might be behind the game window. If it doesn't do it, repeat the process to "Add Window (F3)" then SELECT THE GAME and press "F3" again.

I can't post a screenshot, but in the Windowed Borderless Gaming popup, you need to set the "Game Settings" for FH4, it should find "ForzaHorizon4.exe" and setup a profile. Set your resolution and offset (Should be minus 1 monitor, for me is "-1920x0") and apply.

Go back to the game and press "F4", and the game should be across 3 screens.

Cheers.
