PredatorUK · 25 Feb 2010 at 13:21

Damm that eyefinity setup looks nice, im thinking of getting it as well but need a bigger desk thats shaped right. Ill have to use me current Acer G24 monitor as the middle one, any suggestions on what monitors i should have either side of it?

For Dell get a single 2408WFP (which has display port already) and 2 X 2407WFP HC's Sorted!

Bezel management will not work with this setup though, as 2407's report themselfs as 24.2" monitors and 2408's as 24".

can allways change that in some settings

My 2408 and 2407 both report 24" here

CHanged the 2408 using an EDID override INF file to be the same as the 2407's 24.2" using moninfo but bezel management still does not show.

How are you checking your monitors sizes?

Via CCC lol says 24"

INF Setup doesn't cut it I'm afraid

My INF still says my LG is a 23" monitor but once I flashed the internal EDID to report itself as 22" it works fine for Eyefinity

Where does CCC report screen size? Never noticed it before had to use Monitor Asset Manager

Bezel management on Eyefintity withthe 10.3 drivers seems fine to me. Doesn't seem to show any missing/out of alignement stuff for me.

Can take a picture of it running if your interested.

5970 running 3 2407's

I'm looking to do this as well, but my budget is much tighter. If I bought the Dell P2210H (for Displayport)and 2 BenQ G2222HD, would this work? I can't really go much bigger anyway as desk space is limited, but I will certainly wait and increase my budget if the monitors are too rubbish!

I should also add I currently have one Dell 2407 WFP, although it is overheating at the moment. Probably better to get 3 new ones, but if it helps, I could get 2 new ones and fit with the Dell.
