I don't think any monitors in portrait support 3D due to the polarization change.


Here's a BF3 video of the setup:

Sweet, Guild Wars 2 is working pretty awesome in 4-way crossfire 5x1! I should have a video up this weekend.

Guild Wars 2 runs incredibly well 4-Way Crossfire 5x1 Eyefinity, especially for a Beta!

That looks amazing. Absolutely amazing.

I have been following your build since page 1 on HardOCP, and I have been impressed with it every step of the twisty and turny way it has gone.

How would you say 3 of these screens are portrait? Do you feel it is "wide enough"? I guess this applies to 16:9 monitors 3x1P as a whole, not just this monitor. How would you feel about 16:10 screens if such a panel (120Hz) existed?

I must say your water cooling system is a good schooling for many that want to do super discrete "for looks" installs, that you don't get the best performance from stuff using flashing coolant and 90* bends everywhere. I look forward to seeing future developments, although it seems you are fairly happy with your setup now? :P Or am I wrong? :D

I think 16:10 panels are better suited for a 3x1 setup. 16:9 in 3x1 is a bit narrow.

My 5x1 setup is running really well with the 7970's and the latest AMD drivers so I should be keeping it for quite a while. Hopefully the 89xx series makes it even better!

That GW 2 video...... :love:

Playing Without UI is always the best! And it feels like there is no UI, but you still see it cuz its neccessary!


4x 7970 :D What Resolution is that 5x1P ? i see ingame aroudn 60-100 FPS ^^ sometimes drops to 45.....35... CPU limit ? And it shows 87% GPU usage... Crossfire! Some games run on 99% and others just wont... ^^

Did you check out Powerdrain of the whole system ?

You think 3x1P with 16:10 panels would be do-able then? I was wondering how I could get this for as little cash as possible, would probably mean 3x U2412, I need at least 1 new screen.

Just a shame they don't do it without anti-glare. I hate that shit (and before people QQ, I cannot stand the U2211 anti-glare that the GF uses next to me).

Mad jealous, but 4x 7970? DANG! What would have happened to frames if you only had 2?

That's over $2000 right there!

more like 1600 now ^^

Damn, really? I think I need to go SLI then! But I read SLI can sometimes play games with eyefinity in certain games?

I think I paid $530 at launch for a 7970. At $400, thats a good deal!
