Eyefinity monitors!

Sida · 30 Apr 2011 at 09:13

We're driving down to overclockers today for my friend and I'm planning to pick up a new 24 inch monitor. I'm going to be running it in eyefinity and will soon be buying another two of the same monitor for seamless eyefinity. Can anyone recommend one at £150 - £170 (really pref £150) that have small bezels? I was thinking this one:

but am worried about the fact its OCValue. The single review also says it's LCD not LED so I'm wondering if anyone can recommend another one for roughly the same price that would look good in a triple setup.

Ilyama seem to be rated well here, I've never used one myself though, sorry.

Dont forget to budget £50 for the active display port adaptor.

Im glad you brought this up because im also going to buy 3 monitors today and on a similer budget £150-200 so all help is apreciated.

also im going to be running a gtx 590 or 2x 580 not sure yet, what is the nvidia version of eyefinity i would use for this

i have 3 of these http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MO-095-LG and a ocuk active displayport adaptor for £22, so far im happy with my choice, as for nvidia surround displayport is not needed only dual gpu i believe

just been looking at some samsung md230 i was thinking about buying one or 2 now then saving for another one but i cant find any cheap uk sellers for them

[/QUOTE]

also thats a nice setup but the monitors have too much black frame to make it look good thats what im thinking about just saving for the sammys

old gamer · 30 Apr 2011 at 12:52

the samsung md230x3 was reviewed in custom pc and they were not overly impressed by them

pinki104 · 30 Apr 2011 at 12:53

is there any other monitors with no frames or are the samsungs the only ones

old gamer · 30 Apr 2011 at 12:58

i did see samsung were working on borderless screens but how much how big and when dont know, to be honest you dont notice the borders when your gaming, games like first person shooters dont give you time to think about them too much

or theres this http://www.seamlessdisplay.com/products_radius320.htm

pinki104 · 30 Apr 2011 at 13:31

wow they are really nice but cant see a price for them

Edit: after some research i think the company is either not making the product anymore or being quiet about it because all there youtube videos are from 3-4 year ago

old gamer · 30 Apr 2011 at 14:31

i think it was something stupid like £15,000 for it, the last time i looked they were trying to get orders but could very well have died a death, i was hoping samsung might have picked up on it to make a cheap mass preduced version

Is the eyefinity just a ATI thing as im not sure or could you use a GTX 580 to show three monitor.

For nvidia you need 2 graphics cards
