Pictures worked for me. Nice desk. The cable length will be fine. When I got my executive desk I had the same issue and had to get a 12 foot dvi cable.

If you have crossfire enabled you can only use outputs on one card (3 outputs). If you want a 4th monitor while running crossfire you have to add a 3rd card. If you can sacrifice the 4th monitor while gaming you can always run 2 cards, setup a profile with them not crossfired and run up to 6 monitor...

My center screen is the one I use as primary. That one is one the DP adaptor. I tried repeatedly switching profiles, it seems to work on about the 3rd try for my profiles, or atleast it gets close enough that it only takes a few seconds for me to make the necessary adjustments. So far I'm definitely...

Guess my luck really held up. Got the adapter today. Took about 30 minutes to uninstall the drivers, remove my old 4850's, install the 5850, reinstall drivers and get EyeFinity setup. Hawx looks amazing and runs great, crysis warhead runs great as well. I'll fool around with it more later but so far...

Got Lucky again, I must have gotten 1 of the 2 adapters in stock. Amazon sent me a shipping comformation at 12:56 a.m. today, should have the adaptor by Wed. Got the video card today. I'll wait til I have the adapter to install the card so I dont have to bother keeping one of my 4850's running. Wish...

If my early experience is anything to go by, you'll certainly get your fill of fun! At the moment I have zero faith in Eyefinity as a sure-thing. I had to present a demo to a custome...

I definitely agree with you Paradigm Shifter... My 4850's got better over time as the drivers matured, had less issues with CCC. I know being an early adoptor I am going to experience some growing pains but thats part of the fun to me... Heres to keeping my fingers crossed on the adaptor, last night...

That seems to be the normal for any advanced setup in CCC. When I first got my 4850's, I went thru he!! trying to get them to stay configured the way I want. A year later I still cant get it to properly save a profile with crossfire enabled and one monitor running, then another with no crossfire and...

I've been running a 3 screen setup for over a year now. I've used SoftH to get a few games runnig but anyone who has used SoftH knows how limted the support is and how much of a pain it can be to setup. When ATI announced Eyefinity it was like a wet dream. Finally be able to have triple-monitor supp...
