Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hi all, wasn't sure where to post this but wanted to say that I thank whoever wrote the !wsgf bang command for searching at DuckDuckGo. I use this feature of DuckDuckGo (my default search engine) all day long. And whenever I think about looking up a new game I visit here by searching !wsgf <game ...

Just wondering, with your single 6970. What FPS do/did you get running eyefinity 5760 x 1080 in different modes? I am interested in getting a single 6970 for the time being, then possibly upgrading later.

But right now, I just want to know if one 6970 will run BF3 in eyefinity, on mediumish ...

Would love input from the WSGF community on a new build I am working on. I am wanting to build something powerful that will last and age very well for a few years.
Here's a little template for build advice requests I found (cheesy, but thoughtful):

[quote]I really don't see what's the big deal with BF3. It was supposed to have uber destruction but they nerfed it back to be worse than BC2, once they got all the fanboys to preorder it after seeing the promo videos, now all the fanboys are screwed paid $60 for a PoS.


What I dont get is ...

It's looking nice, Delphium!

My comment to the review and Tom's Hardware reviewer reply:

Chris -- on behalf of triple head gamers thank you so much for the multi-monitor testing! The GTX 590 and AMD 6990 comparison was great.



Very welcome! Several of the additions to this story were direct ...

Reveal video on NVIDIA's YouTube channel.

Tom's Hardware review included a multi-monitor comparison (props to TH) of the GTX 590 and AMD 6990.

WSGF moderator squad = top notch.

Many thanks, TMK.

Apparently the Complete version of Civ III actually runs the Conquests .exe.

I've confirmed the the config file called "conquests.ini" for the Steam version of Civilization III Complete is located in this folder:

I picked up the Steam version of Civ III: Complete ("Complete" = the original plus some additional content from expansion packs).

I didn't locate a civilization3.ini anywhere in the /steamsapps/common/civ3 folder.

I tried creating one and simply adding in the bit of code mentioned here but ...

Thanks for the report! Stellar.

I recommend everyone visit THIS THREAD and post a request that DICE make a push for native support in the 1.5 patch due to come out soon.

There is a glimmer of hope as the DICE rep there says:

Added my +1 to that thread.

Sorry for the duplicate topic in the Widescreen Solutions forum...not really sure if we need one in the Widescreen and a separate one in the Surround Solutions forum.

I don't know if this is of any help, but if i enable the fixer while only running one screen i'm not kicked by PB. It only kicks if i run the fixer and also run the other screens.

I not sure that will help. Since CoD 4 already supports widescreen on 1 screen natively, using the fixer on 1 ...

I've renamed the thread title to be more accurate.

Forums mods, edit as you see fit.

You make some great points.
