Re: My Monitor keeps going out ? ? ?

mine happens once every 8 hours or so. it could be anything to be honest.
also sometimes when switching from bezel managed resolution on exiting a game to non bezeled windows desktop resolution (but still eyefinity) the DP Adaptered screen is pixelated and requires a increase or decrease in ...

4. TV and Blu-ray looks great. I can set the aspect ratio to 16:9 for tv and 2.35:1 or wider for wide format movies. 2 1024x768 projectors = 2048x768, which is very close to standard 2.35:1 Blu-ray content at 1920x800. TV and Blu-ray content is better suited for a 2 projector flat wall ...

Re: Eyefinity + Crossfire = Stuttering

this is the problem with ATi.. they get the jump on NV sales rise and then shortly later NV destroy Ati simple because the software isnt engineered properly and robustly.

i mean why make a 2 billion transistor state of the art card costs billions $ R&D launching with eyefinity as the main ...

Re: Eyefinity 3 x Dell 2209WA @76Hz + Apple DPA + Surroundview

nice :D

i have now moved to portrait for a while. only a handfull of games are improved with landscape and even then im only really enjoying the first extra 1/4 of each side screen.

in portrait it is literally like a window into the game world. in landscape the lack of physicaly verticle ...

its cool you got two hd projectors, i have a hd pj and would like to get another but id start fresh so both bulbs aged the same. i also wont do it until LED bulbs are more widespread with their 20K+ lifetime and lack of wear/fade that will be ideal (also removes rainbow effect from dlp) and dlp is ...

also i thought the 5970 was dual gpu but seen as single gpu.


regards 5850 vs 5870 i couldn't justify £100 more, my sapphire at 775,1125 clocks oc`d from factory is only 10%-15% behind a 5870, if i could unlock the card and OC people have been ...
