For those of you with Multi Monitor Setups like myself we have to use a bit of a work around for this game thats kinda annoying but its playable...

Head over to your Documents Folder and then Open the Black Desert Folder. In here you will find a file called GameOption.txt in this file u will see a bunch of basic easy to read settings basically you need your settings to look like mine except your own custom resolution to match your monitors, in my case its triple 1080 with bezel correction hence the weird width number.

version = 4
adaptor = 0
windowed = 2
width = 5968
height = 1080

Note that the windowed version must be set to 2 this way it guns the game in Windowed! After this you can head over to your Nvidia Control Panel or Radeon Settings and make a game Profile for Black Desert make sure you enable Nvidia Surround/Eyefinity depending on your GPU Manufacturer. If you would like you may also force disabled V-Sync in this Panel I noticed a Very Small 1-2FPS Increase. Now in Game you will have a stupid windows Task Bar at the bottom which is of course really annoying. So for this we need to download a Program called Task Bar Hider which u can optionally get from here Task bar Hider [www.itsamples.com] again this is not needed, just if you want to remove that taskbar. through that .exe on Desktop run it for my nothing loads on Screen but If I press Win Key + X or CTRL + SHIFT + A my taskbar disappears been running this for almost a month using triple monitors for BDO and no Problems. The reason for making this guide is because when I got the game seem nobody had a fix in the forums or online so I fooled around with it myself figured it out played the game for like 40 Hours once I got it to make sure everything was stable which it is and Posted up this Guide!

If Your FPS Drops because your in WIndowed (Some Games tend to Have Massive Drops in Windowed Mode over Fullscreen) then you can check out this guide to help you increase your FPS - FPS FIX

40x3 is 120.... so yes 40-50 would be average.... Its more Ideal for extreme GPU setups... I did show an FPS Fix guide at the bottom of this guide if that helps
