Re: WSGF YouTube Video of Bezel Compensation

I didn't notice the outer edges of the side screens, do we lose real estate like Matrox? If not, and it goes edge to edge then I have to say kudo's to ATI :D

I can just imagine the bezel management pains with a 3x2 system.

Re: Nvidia 3D Surround.. ATI is about to get it in the rear end.

I think that ATI is just being sly. They are sitting back to see how big this 3d thing may be. They have had 3d support for a long time but thru IZ3D and they have just showed their support for the Blu-ray 3d format. They have the wireless 3d glasses just like Nvidia but I think that it was more ...

Re: 3 screen multi monitor woes

I ran three I-INC 28" (27.5 actual) on a TH2G with no problems. I loved it until I dropped one monitor during a move. The bezels were quite wide and I intended to remove the frames but after dropping the one there was no use. I won't be replacing it for awhile as I want to go eyefinity next time and ...

@ StingingVelvet

Congratulations, you have discovered, on your first try, "Good games gone bad". "Mods" sound like such a good idea but in truth, most of them really screw up a good game. I have seen some good mods that actually add something but most add thrashing, booming, or otherwise ...

Try Doom. The first Space Marine. Even Duke Nukem payed homage to the dead space marine in the chapel. But maybe I'm wrong, Commander Keen may have been a space marine.

surround gaming as a standard

I really got off track of the original intent of this thread. What I meant to say was that with EF maybe game makers should take surround gaming into account and design for it. no more fisheye. Maybe games should consider that they may be played on multiscreen and that people expect to have that ...

I agree that so far a kiss in game play is a bit cheezy. But I was thinking that with the advance in graphics and physics maybe it could be done better. As for, do you watch or do you play? it should be an option where you could switch between the two.. How this would relate to surround vision I don ...

I think that with the advent of eyefinity perhaps, maybe, widescreen gaming may become the norm. I think that this is the reasoning behind eyefinity in the first place. The object of every game is to immerse people into the game. We are all looking for that place where we are there. this is the ...

Re: How wide is too wide?


I've been looking at reasonably cheap 22" and 24" screens, but my problem is that all (cheap) 24" screens have moved to 1920x1080. I'm a little concerned that three of these next to each other will be too wide and thin, as such I'm leaning toward a 3x22" solution.

I'm not sure but from your ...

Has anyone managed to achieve 5040x1050 with an ATi 5870 yet

You haven't listed any info on your system. Are you using TH2go Digital edition? Did you run the compatability wizard on the Matrox website?
I don't see any 5800 series listed in the compatability list there.

what is your OS?

As a side note, have you not tried 3 screens using the built ...

TripleHead Portrait ? (purely retorical)

I'm ignorant of theses things so forgive me. If I have 3 x16:10 monitors and turn them 90degrees side by side then what is the resulting aspect ratio?

In some ways it looks like it could be more engageing but if it's an aspect that games don't support then what's the point.

Wolfenstein (2009) Appears to be Hor+

The game is definately a kind of quick and simple release... I feel Raven is putting their real effort into Singularity. The game doesn't have AA due to deffered lighting, but a DX10 exe would have solved that... they didn't bother (you can force SSAA though).

That said, it is a fun game and ...

At a Lost

after losing a monitor (I dropped it durring a move) I tried running 2 monitors off of 1 and 3. It worked fine for desktop but playing games the center was gone. I tried 1 and 2 and like you I lost my second monitor. I finally took out the th2go and ran my 2 monitors from the 2 outputs on my card ...
