I talk to myself in real life so this thread is totally appropriate. My eyefinity issues arent just going to go away.. when I boot up my eyefinity set up either doesnt blink at all, or it will blink a few times a minute consistantly... there really is no ryhme or reason. I believe if I set up my res... |

I never use AA. I don't think it is needed @ such high resolution anyway being 5760X1200 on pc. Console games don't give you the option to adjust AA because all hardware is the same for console. The same with graphic settings so while it might be on some may think it is not. I rarely play a game th... |

[quote][quote]I use two 5870s in crossfire. Works great. You need 9.12 hotfix driver or 10.1 for eyefinity to work with Crossfire. I am more worried about the Active Display port adapter now. I wont know if I got a good one until Monday.. I dont think its soo much the adapter as it is power put int... |

[quote] You may find that you may not be buying any PC games for awhile if you are taking the stance of "eyefinity" or no-game, I will go to my console... well guess what that console supports... one screen at probably a lower res... Forza 3 for Xbox 360 supports triple screen and does it very well... |

I saw this tonight on a game website... it really angers me and I agree it is kinda scary that microsoft hates the pc for games. The sexbox 360 cant delivar the goods ;.. I dont want to play at 720p.. I was looking forward to this game a bit. |
