fixed it via this method: http://www.overclock.net/amd-ati/959493-amd-catalyst-11-2-screen-rotation-2.html#post12686538

If I unplug my displayport monitor, I am able to rotate the other two DVI displays into portrait but the moment I plug it back in, the rotate option stops working.

I upgraded from cat 11.3 to 11.5 a week or two ago. I didn't reboot (since it didn't ask). I had my three monitors in a 3x1 portrait configuration. After finally rebooting last night, the monitors were in landscape again, the main monitor was 800x600 and the two side monitors were disabled. After ...

On the whole, my Eyefinity experience has been positive. Many games work with Eyefinity with a minimal amount of tinkering. The added feeling of immersion was well worth the cost of buying 2 additional 24" monitors to match the 24" I already had. With the release of nvidia's surround technology to ...

It doesn't work using CCC or any in game check boxes; instead of 60hz, it locks to 120hz. However, I thought I remember reading somewhere that there is a way to force it via some other method, but this was a long time ago.

Any ideas?

I'm having all of the same problems. Additionally, civ5 doesn't work with crossfire. My 2nd video card is doing absolutely nothing. I had to turn down the graphics quality in order to have playable framerates. In the end I just set it to 1920x1200 instead of 5760x1200. It's much more enjoyable.

Do you already have a display group created? if you hit the down arrow on the right side of the display group, and then under Display Group, do you have an option to Add or Configure Bezel Compensation?

No, I said it didn't work.

Didn't work; the option still isn't there.

It does work, but even the slightest mouse trail drives me nuts. Far more than a wacky cursor. I've learned to live with it, i was just curious.

Maybe there's a way to keep it technically enabled, but put the trails value to something as close to zero as possible. I shall look into it ...

No problem. Glad to hear you got it working. Might I suggest custom UI's though. The vanilla UI doesn't sit very well with triplehead.

The add-on "Move Everything" is invaluable for multi monitor WoW.

Glad to hear you fixed it, WoW at 5760x1200/1080 is awesome ;)

I am getting microstuttering out the ass with 2 5850's at 5760*1200. The two games I tried: WoW and Trackmania, were completely unplayable. I have a mobo with Lucid Hydra, so I'm going to give that a shot.

EDIT: Ok so with Hydra enabled, I'm sitting here getting 40fps with everything at max. No ...

I would save your money and just buy a 2nd regular 5870. The extra 1gb ram hardly offers any more performance. There are a few reviews out there of the 2gb model. Anandtech's is nice: http://www.anandtech.com/show/3621/amds-radeon-hd-5870-eyefinity-6-edition-reviewed As you can see, the 2gb rarely ...

Perhaps your laptop is only able to output to one of the two external connections at a time? My motherboard had 2 outputs, but was only able to output to one at a time.

Are you unable to get all 3 displays working in extended mode or just unable to get them working in Eyefinity?

Kind of disappointing, almost no benefit to having the 2gb compared to the 1gb of the vanilla 5870:

Anandtech has a review up: http://www.anandtech.com/show/3621/amds-radeon-hd-5870-eyefinity-6-edition-reviewed/1

Almost no benefit for the 2gb even with 3 displays.

You're going to need a bigger desk.

Yep first time I click the Extended Shortcut it turns off both side monitors awesome.

When I switch from my eyefinity profile to regular extended, the monitors are in the wrong order. Reloading the regular profile 3 times gets them in the correct order. I've tried remaking the profile 2-3 ...

some prick mod on the AMD forums keeps locking threads about the bezel management.

[quote]and I still can't enable bezel management due to not having identical monitors. Weak............

Yep, big disappointment. Bezel management is the last piece in the puzzle to making Eyefinity just about perfect for me. But it falls short once again.

Is the individual colour ...
