Allright completely off topic but no one will respond so please help me.. Someone direct me to an article or tutorial on HOW TO use and run SofTH for the love of GOD I can't get it working and the information is limited...

I'd love to get a confirmation from someone using the Apple Active adapter that is works with 3 x 1920 x 1080 resolutions ... not just 3x1650x1080

anyone?

EDIT: Stuff it ... I ordered same one as FragU ... $200 AU ... ouch ...

Pretty sure the product blurb said it handles 1920 x 1200.

The only review of the mini dp apple adapter I saw said its a bad product and does not work.

You want a eyefinity certified deivce or one known to work well.

From the Apple site.

"Use the Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter to connect your Mac to a 30-inch display that includes a DVI connector, such as the 30-inch Apple Cinema Display HD, and enjoy the ultimate widescreen canvas with a resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels".

Yeah the adapter works, but I am saying I have heard it does not work well with eyefinity.

But I guess you will find out on your own if it does or not.

Seems that a lot of people complain it not working or being flakey in non-eyefinity related cases too.

Prolly just shoddy engineering.

Well I personally bought the Belkin-Accell-Dell. All the same except Dell sell theirs cheaper.

Has anyone cracked open the Belkin-Accell-Dell converter yet to see what chips they are using?

*chuckle* why don't you buy one and find out? Sounds like you want to reverse engineer one with Radio Shack parts? Sounds like more than a $100 worth of headache to me. :wink:
