Hi guys,

I'm new to eyeinfinity and also new to this forum. I wanted to ask for help. I did configure the eyeinfinity setup - everything is fine for anything except gaming that I can't play Left for Dead 2, for example, I get duplicated views on each monitor. Yes, I have triple monitors.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Danny

First thing to do is put them into a group and arange them correctly in CCC.
Next select the triple monitor resolution ingame. In left4dead2 it would be under 16:9.

HD 6870?

They are not to be released until Friday and everything is under NDA.

Your issue is probably that you haven't created an Eyefinity group yet. Here's how to setup a HD 5000 series Eyefinity:

Very suprised, since the NDA is global and doesn't expire before Friday. :)

Could you give us some feedback on the card, benches or something? :D

Yeah I will try but can't promise, because I have alot of things on my plate lately :(

I'm sure someone will bench it for sure. But I can give you the link...

I can tell you it does fly well! I personally think HD6990 because I tried to use heavy setting on picture quality for playing Left for dead 2, I noticed it's a bit lag or it' just me getting used to eyefinity because I may get motion sickness lol due to that quality.

Pics of the card or it didn't happen! Getting a 6870 would be a step down from a 5870 anyways. Gives me more time to save up for a 6970 (or 6990 if they ever get dual cards to work right).
