| Thanks. :) At least we know that the SDK is not the cause of surround issues on the game or can cause issues in future games with the SDK. That being said, I'm still not happy that there was an unexpected result. We need to figure out how to minimize these things. Not easy when we don't control the... |

| For me the kicker is that the multi-monitor landscape has changed, I daresay permanently. If studios and publishers now have to contend with hardware/feature separation in multiple directions--even if implementing one platform might make it much easier to support the others--I fear multi-monitor su... |

| Sunspot is checking if the SDK could have influenced/interfered with the support for other surround users. I have been told by the EF Feature Manager (no, I don't manage EF anymore) and the ISV Engineer who worked with Ubisoft that the SDK does not interfere with support for other surround users. Wi... |

| PS. GeneralAdmission tested the SDK and it shows that the Eyefinity support does nothing for TH users. Does the SDK interfere with the surround support which normally would work on both TH and Eyefinity? I'll inquire. Unless there was some technical reason that required it, any interference would be... |

Rather than duplicate everything in two places, we will work to give Kyle an answer/explanation/whatever and trust that he will (as usual) be a sharp but fair judge for what we are doing. Otherwise he m... |

| When this card does release will it be able to do 5x1 portrait with a 6th monitor on top. If so could you update Hydragrid to 5x1. As it is right now the most you can do in portrait is 3x1 unless I'm missing something. I prefer to stay in eyefinity when doing 2d work and not switch back to extended... |

| Does anyone know if Eyefinity 6 will support 5 X 1 or 6 X 1, depending on display resolution. As I understand it, Eyefinity 6 has a 8K X 8K pixel limit when it comes to output resolutions. BTW. This is similar to Dual Quadraplex... Yes, someone knows. :D 5x1 is not currently supported. 6x1 is curre... |

| Dave, is there a limitation to the resolution that one single DP port can push? I can't help but believe that at some point in the future, a very large, wrap around panel is going to emerge, and we'll look back at multi-display systems and chuckle. Will DP be able to handle this kind of resolution ... |

The answer isn't as simple as it might appear. BTW I haven't read the entire thread so this may all be addressed by others. I just... |
