Well. I got myself three Dell U2311H's for general work and a little eyefinity action. It does look amazing!

However I can't seem to get my head around it. I'm getting shot all over the place and I am a lot better on one screen. Quite annoying!

Any tips?
 
what is eyefinity, for example in BC2 on one screen i presume you see your normal gun etc and what is on the second screen
 
I'm the same way - just can't play fps games on 3 screens (if it was one continous screen would be ok but personally I never get used to the bevels), do like it for racing games tho.

Might be the drop in framerate?
 
I wish games like Battlefield had an option for dual monitors, where on one screen you had the map, scoreboard, etc etc., and then you play on your main monitor.

This TBH games like command and conquer would be great set-up like this action on 1 screen and all the other stuff on another .
 
tbh i hate eyeinfinty/nv surround i think it looks awful and runs like a dog would sooner have a 1 large 2560x1440/1600 panel
 
It just takes time to adjust to the extra field of vision. if you increaced your FOV for single screen bad company it might be worth reducing it back to below what it is standard.
 
Your meant to just focus on the middle screen as your primary display and then the other two screens are just there so when someone runs past you will see them out of the corner of your eye on the other screens therefore giving you an advantage of a wider filed of view...you dont have to try and look for other people on the other two screens, your eyes and brain will just pick up on movement on the other screens and then you will flick around and turn to their direction with your main screen.

Just takes some time to get used to but once you get used to it its amazing.

I definitely think this is the way it's meant to be. At first I was looking at the side screens. Just doesn't work. I've not had much time to play recently. I'm sure I'll pick it up.
 
lol eyefinity is bit of a cheat really in fps games, giving the players that have it huuuuge peripheral vision
