Hi Guys,

I'm new to Eyefinity so not sure if this can be sorted...

Setup:

2x 19" 4:3 1280x1024
1x 24" 16:10 1920x1200 (in the middle)

So I was expecting eyefinity to give me a res of 4480x1024 (total width & min height) but it gives 3840 x 1024 (min width accross all monitors)

This means that when I play COD MW2 the outer 4:3 screens look fine but the middle 16:9 screen looks stretched. (I've tried setting the game's aspect to 4:3 and 16:9/10 but it's still streched)

Can i do anything about this?

Thanks,
Leigh

Eyefinity and Nvidia Surround requires that all panels output the same resolution. If your panels do not, then the drivers will scale back your panel(s) to the largest common resolution. Hence your x1200 panel is running at 1280x1024 like your side panels, and your total resolution is 3840x1024.

Within my knowledge the only way currently to mix monitor resolutions like you want is with SoftTH, even then I believe SoftTH requires that resolutions match. But that topic is beyond my knowledge. Somewhere to start:
