Tried setting the miniDP display as the center screen and with no overclocking in the card, and no good results, is still tearing. Is weird because it doesn't have tearing all over the place just 3 lines one in each screen. The effect is weird if you look at a line when the screen tears is like in that line the would be no bezel compensation, it doesn't look straight for a moment and after that when you are still the line is perfectly straight again....

I don't know if its important but I'm using portrait mode 3x1.

This is very important. As soon as you start using landscape, the tearing will be 10 times less visible. It will still be there though.

Ok, I love portrait mode, but maybe I should give landscape a try because in some games like Skyrim the tearing really bothers me...

You can always trade in your card for an Asus HD7970-DC2-3GD5 when it releases. You could tell the seller that the card malfunctions and show him the tearing. If you have doubts about the Asus, I can always PM you the day I get it and tell you how the card is.

That would be great, even though I don't know if the seller would allow me to trade my 7970 in...

It's the fact that you're using native. One way or another the GPU doesn't have problems with that.

Well, I tried the miniDP to DP cable and dind't solve the problem, the tearing is still there. Haldi, could you tell me your exact setup? Do you use a HDMI to DVI adapter?
