Which BIOS fixed the flashing monitor thing?
Was it the non-DP monitor that was flashing? Or was it only when Overdrive was enabled? |

First, the horizontal resolution will actually be 7680.
Second, if you purchase the Eyefinity Edition which has 6 MiniDisplayPort outputs, then all you would need is either 1 additional MiniDP-to-DP adapter dongle or purchase DP-to-MiniDP cables from a reseller such as Monoprice.com |

FOV=55 is way too magnified for me when using 2560x1600. I've been playing around with different ones. If I set it too high, then it becomes harder and harder to aim. |

CrossFireX doesnt work with Dx9? Is this in general or just with specific games? |

So, I received the E6 card yesterday and thought I would verify that the MiniDP-to-DVI dongles were indeed passive. And indeed they are ;) The Dell 30" would only do 1920x1200 and the Apple 30" would only do 1280x800. Picked up another DisplayPort cable to connect the 2nd Dell 30" and picked up a Mi... |

I don't have it installed anymore, but I assume that Dopefish's fix should work, since it works on all other games he lists for me. http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=61&t=11529 BRPunk, nope, the fixer doesn't work for BF2 or BF2142 in EyeFinity. It does correctly fix FOV bu... |

Yeah that surprised me... I expected no change for single monitor resolutions, but I would have thought there would be some change 10%+ for 3x1 or higher Eyefinity setups. Oh well, I have U2410's , so I want to run them all with DP connectivity so these new cards make it easy for me. I find it a li... |

I would hope it was a mistake too since I don't see how they could justify the inclusion of three more outputs as greater than a whole extra GPU... Well, 3 more outputs, 3 more controllers, and 1GB more VRAM, but still, the 5970 has 1 whole GPU and 1 whole GB VRAM, too, so you wouldn't think 1 GPU ... |

"The core issue is the fact that the dedicated CrossFire interconnect used for passing completed frames between cards has "only" enough bandwidth to sustain a 2560x1600 display resolution. Even three 1080p displays will exceed its capacity." If this is true, then what hardware are they using when t... |
