Multi Monitor RTG & Native

Hello,

Is it possible to run to monitors (windows) one in RTG and one in Native, where the native screen will take over for games? I only ask as sometimes the screen will freeze and I can hear the game running, but the screen is frozen as if it has not changed screenmodes properly. I thought if I had 2 monitors it would be easier to manage. If it is possible, how do I do it?

END+F9 can be used to switch between "monitors".

Multi monitor (each monitor becomes separate window) mode is also possible, configure RTG board to use other monitor number than default 1. Chipset is always monitor 1.

Oh did not know there was a shortcut key, thanks. So If I put RTG on monitor 2 monitor 1 will be native?

Yeah. You get two windows, one that shows native and another that shows RTG. Both are active and refreshed in real time simultaneously. (Like having two physical monitors, one connected to native output and another to RTG board)
