Eyefinity Monitors with ultra thin bezels?

powdaman · 28 Sep 2009 at 15:18

New rig ordered containing an ATI 5870 card. would like to know if anyone out there is using the 3 monitor setup and what monitors you are using. I'm after 3 monitors 22 - 24" with ultra thin bezels to support it.

bump!

Would really like to know what the best monitors are for the eyefinity setup, or if there are any new ones being released etc...

Please advise,

Powda

When ur gaming using 3 monitors u dont really even notice the bezels so i wouldnt let it affect ur choice too much. Samsung should be releasing UT (ultra thin) bezel monitors very soon.

Keep an eye on this forum http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=64&sid=0bb5ba3271db0154142adfcb60739507.

Thats what I'm hoping, although I would like ultra thing bezels and probably 120Hz or greater as well

(am i being greedy?

Over on the WSGF there is a similar thread, with the Samsung SM2443BW being recommended, which is fortunate as that's what I have.

Am considering buying two more for this pupose (plus active DP adapter of course).

I believe someone over there (WSGF) also already has a 2 x SM2443BW setup.

Whilst the bezels aren't 'ultra' thin, they are on the slimmer side.

With regards to the DP Issue with these I assume the DP to VGA adapters have to be active as well? They all look a lot beefier than the passive DVI ones aswell as a lot cheaper. No one seems to have tested one yet?

No idea, but I imagine by next summer there will be newer & better models out anyway. TFT Central does a pretty good job of keeping upto date with the latest goings on in TFT land: http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/
