So I have a Saphire Flex 6950 running eyefinity. I am getting screen tearing on at least one of my monitors at all times due to shitty AMD engineering. There seems to be absolutely no fix for it. If there is tell me please.

So I believe I have a month to return it to Newegg, because I just cannot stand it. Its a fatal flaw. What other video cards would you guys recommend? Probably an nvidia card right? If I go that route and still want to use 3 monitors I will have to buy two video cards correct?

If so, I doubt I will be able to afford that. So what exactly are my options? Should I return the card and wait for AMD to release their new 7000 series of cards? Should be soon right? Next month? Or should I return it and switch to nvidia? Or is there a cheap fix for this? thanks

Send it back, buy a new HD6950, buy an active DP-DVI Adapter. maybe you won't get tearing anymore.
