NV surround works on P mode, like Ugzz said, set the monitors to P mode before activating surround. I did this for a while but the viewing angle on one of my monitors was poor and went back to landscape. I liked the P-mode surround and have been thinking about upgrading my monitors to ones with bett...

Ok gents I did some more poking, I may have found my soulution, I downloaded the MSI afterburner software and downclocked the OCx (702Mhz) to the same speed as OC (666Mhz) and I was able to play Crysis Warhead in DX10.

I will do more testing tonight before I declare victory.

I run GTA IV in Th2go at 4320x900, even though I could run it at 5040x1050 because it's much more playable at that resolution.

That is good to hear, I think ATI has a hit here in EF.

My new budget I could swing 3 $150 monitors or the TH2Go but not both. I have settled on spending around $250 on a good 22" monitor that is supported, and buy the other two monitors and TH2Go later.
