Hey guys just got my th2g setup and looked around and couldnt find my problem.

I have a center samsung 22IN with 2 Acer x193w+ running 1680.

The center monitor is fine but the sides are kinda blurry. The left side in particular if i move the mouse from center to Left there is a huge gap till the mouse shows up on the left monitor.(the right side the gap is fine) Also the task bar is only visible on the center monitor. Its like the scale of the image is off.

in game the side images look "mirrored" as in the objects look way bigger and closer than they are when they shift to the cxenter monitor.

I dont know if this is a product of TH2go setup or a problem.

Matrox says you can run different sizes as long as the resolutions are the same.

I dont expect the images to line up exactly since the sizes are different but there shouldnt be a huge gap like that right?

Thanks guys!

The "gap" and the blurriness you are getting seems very odd and shouldn't be happening...
The task bar should be across all three monitors.
It seems (as you say) your two outside screens aren't scaling things correctly or are doing the res incorrectly.

Your Acer's could well be the problem.
Can you run single screen 1680 @ 57Hz on those Acer's ?
Try the samsung on one of the sides.


... as in the objects look way bigger and closer than they are when they shift to the cxenter monitor.
I'm pretty sure this is not your problem but it is something to be aware of ...
Objects can look bigger on the outside screens ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/7185

Oh ... and welcome to the forum ... 8)

OK did some testing.

Samsung on the sides the samsung was perfect..wherever I put the Acers they have the issue. Interesting note is in this mode on the acer OSD it says its running in 1280x1024 mode...which makes sense on the scaling issue.

Now if i swap to single display the run 1680 fine and even when i customize the resolution to be 57 HZ the single acer is fine.

So for some reason its defaulting to 1280x1024 in 1680x3 mode.

Very frustarting im about to send the TH2go back.

Any ideas?
