This is great, you should typ out a good explanation of things and make it a sticky! And by the way, I have made a new thread at Nvidia's Surround forum part, please view it (even AMD users :p) http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/nvidia-surround-gaming/19085/questions-about-new-surround-setup-fe |

Very interesting theory! But how come's i'm running 2x DVI +1x Mini DP to DP, on my 3 Dell U2311H without ever noticing anything like tearing? AMD synchronized DP port to 1920x1080p32bit ? and any other resolution would cause tearing? |

| Post subject: | You know what? I made myself |
You know what? I made myself a new list of choices based on what you said and what I found out (this never ends :tired:) 1) Buy an AMD 6990 With this card I get 2 x DisplayPort-DVI-adapter | 1 x DisplayPort-HDMI adapter. If I want to eliminate screentearing I have to buy one adapter more, which will result in a total price of 625 euro's. 2) Buy an AMD 7970 With this card I get 2 x DisplayPort - Apple mini-DisplayPort | 1 x HDMI - 19-pens HDMI type A ( met adapter ) | 1 x DVI-I (dubbele verbinding) - 29-pin combined DVI. I am not sure if I get the right adapters with this card, could anybody tell me if the Apple mini-Displayport adapters are the same as the ones I get with the 6990? If yes, then this would cost me 510 euro's in total. However, I would still have screentearing until the MST hub comes out. This means another XXX euro's and an extra adapter. Does an MST hub also increase input lag? 3) Buy two GTX560 2GB cards With these cards I'd have no tearing and I do not have to buy any adapters. However, SLI does not always work properly. This will cost me around 400 euro's. Please give some valid arguments and/or benchmarks so I can make my mind up. Moose EDIT: I will also make some argument and look up benchmarks myself, but I cannot speak from experience. That's why I am asking you :) |

I know its way past the 12th but this might help others. -Or do these people just connect 2 monitors to the 2 DVI and connect the other monitor to the HDMI port? I have a 6950 flex and this is how Im doing it. No other adapters are necessary. I also researched my monitors before i bought them to make sure they had DVI/HDMI ports, so I wouldnt have to buy anything special. |

EDIT: look at this new thread I recently started, because the Flex cards are no longer available. In the new thread a similar option gets discussed. |
