Hardocp ati eyefinity video review

That's ridiculous! So ****** off with that. The only reason I was going to upgrade to a 5870/5850 was because it said that it support 3 monitors, but I'd need 2 DVI and HDMI, so this card is no good to me. typical :rolleyes:

Edit: I suppose not all is lost considering you can get displayport to hdmi adapters. Just hope they work ok.

The Eyefinity demos ATi were running last month were mostly done using 3 monitors over DVI.

There have been photos of the rear of the demo PCs showing that they had used a DP to DVI converter.

They'll be rolling out some more stuff regarding Eyefinity relatively soon I reckon, like the bezel management stuff too.

We also saw that in the demos too.

You need 2 x DVI and a DP, or DVI + HDMI + DP but there are DP adapters that do work, you just have to make sure you get the right one.

The guy didn't seem to know what he was doing for the most part.

I cringed so badly when he was setting the resolution in COD:WAW.

When he kept clicking "Apply Settings?" when there was a yes and no box right below, he did that about 3 times as well. :(
 
I already have a 24", I am considering buying another 2 but at £400 for one with DP I am not sure.

Instead of making the Bezles smaller just get a bigger screen. :D

1080P 32" LCD TV x3 and a DP->DVI->HDMI adapter would probably look better than 3 x 24" and not any more expensive.

Perople will think I am crazy with 3 LCD Tvs on my desk but who cares. It would be the shizzz.

3 x LG 32" Borderless 1080p 200hz (might need 120hz for 3d. Dear god, imagine eyefinity in 3D)

Does anyone actually use a 32" 1080p LCD for gaming, is it that bad? I imagine with this kind of setup you are going to be a fair few cm back anyway to actually see the whole thing!

Hah, is it just the bad contrast on my 2405FPW that doesn't allow me to see a border on it or is there an LG badge plonked 3 inches up into the center of the LCD
