| Do you have a 2nd DVI on card? I currently use [dvi][dp][dp][dp][dvi]. Your config should work fine though, I'd think.. |

| Hi Widescreen-Fellows ! I want to upgrade my GPU and my monitors and have the following question: If I choose a HD6870 Eyefinity6 and three monitors with display port + two monitors with DVI/HDMI. Is it correct that i DON'T need any ACTIVE (!) DP adaptors to connect all five monitors? The "Eyefinit... |

| If I had 3x 30"s already, I would find it hard to part with them.. and would just make the journey to 5x 30", including machine upgrade. Although certainly it'd take longer to get there. If you added 24" screens as wings, how do your 30"s look when scaled down to 1920x1200? I'm currently running 5x1... |

| I'll toss this in as something to think about: It may work out easier to just add a separate low power machine to serve these monitors, and then link the two desktops using Synergy. Personally I keep one machine just for gaming, and have secondary inputs on each monitor served by other machines. So ... |

| This is because your resolution is not yet set to something other than the single display resolution. That makes sense, I was in extended mode at 6000x1920 before enabling Eyefinity, so never ran into it. I'm confused about the 5x1P driver situation too. I had the impression it was live in 11.8 rel... |

| Hmm. I don't remember encountering that issue. :/ After creating the Eyefinity group it automatically went on to "Arrange Eyefinity Display Group", where you click on the blue screens to indicate what is where physically. You could try doing that bit from the Eyefinity submenu? Or try recreating the... |

| 11.8 doesn't include 5x1 sadly. You need to install 11.8 preview, then 5x1 will be available. If it's not, then run driver sweeper first and it should show up. I was able to still have 5x1 available on 11.8 release if I upgraded from 11.8 preview.. but then CCC failed to load properly. One annoying ... |

| Right, 2GB in this case means 1GB per GPU. Which is all that matters. |

| I would honestly just try it first on your existing 5970. Your main issue is going to be running out of VRAM with only 1GB I suspect.. buying another 5970 for 4x crossfire wouldn't help with that at all. If you do find 1GB is too limiting, then a 6990 seems the obvious choice (if you can find one in... |

| I read that 5x1 is enabled by using two DVI, the HDMI and the two DP ports? Could anyone confirm that is the way 5x1 is done with these drivers and 6000-series? No. I gather you can only use 4 displays on the 6xxx series until displayport hubs become available next year (allowing you to connect mul... |

Those DLPs seem impossible to get in Europe, which may help explain why it's rarer to find such a setup. Plus the newness of nvidia 3d surround.
Sounds like it'd be an incredible configuration to me. :) |
