Try connecting the displays as follows:
1-A, 1-B, 2-A. ie, move 2-A to 1-B, and 2-B to 2-A. |

| Uploaded with ImageShack.us I'm not 100% certain so if someone can confirm for me-you 12V Amps are 20V 40V 20V 40V. Could this be causing the fluctuations? As for your PCIe bandwidth, a x16 x16 x1 would be a problem. Setting your BIOS to x16 x8 x8 would be better. IMO, a x16 x8 x8 setup would resul... |

| IMO both NVIDIA and ATI have their share of problems with surround/eyefinity. A few things you could (and probably have) try: 1. Turn off eye candy. ie AA/AF/HBAO. The VRAM is insufficient to properly scale. 2. What PSU are you using? How old is it? My old quadfire 5970 had teething problems. It tur... |

| Actually, GTX480 has 1.5Gb VRAM. It makes a big difference in performance IMO. I too, like AA/AF in games. I can turn up settings (AA/AF/Post processing etc) and still get better performance than 5970 or in quadfire. Having 1Gb on 5970, it would bottleneck terribly @ hi res/settings. Any attempt to ... |

They blamed it on : 1. Drivers ("Will be rectified in future driver releases." It took them from Cat 9.12 hotfix ... |

Unplugging then reconnecting would give back a signal. The dongle/active display port adapter I was using was AMD certified including updat... |

I can suggest three options: 1. Wait for better drivers. I know what you're thinking.......... 2. Go Gr... |

| From experience, I found that Cat drivers are unique to each rig. ie, the variables are great. It sucks that a set of drivers (which are universal) are so SENSITIVE to hardware/software combinations. I would suggest to magnet : 1. Plug the adapter into a wall mounted USB unit. After testing, I found... |

| After months of not being able to use Cat 10.4, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7 due to flickering DP issues, I have found a solution. 1. I believe it's the DP adapter. I just ordered an Accell B087B-003J Mini DP adapter with firmware 2.0. I previously used an Accell B087B-002B with old firmware. 2. The DP adapt... |

| I have the same problem. Cat 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 gives the blinking and disappearing disply problem. Cat 10.3 has NO such problems. I don't believe Accell or the active DP adapter manufacturers are at fault. If it worked up 10.3, then isn't it a driver issue? (although ATI would defend this). Endles... |

Instead, go for 2gb 5870s, a 4Gb 5970, or a 5970 now then another later (when/if drivers mature). The rest of your rig is fine. This type of setup is not PnP. You need to have time/pat... |
