Eyefinity groups can only be created on the same card. I have 12 mini display ports across 2 cards, but the largest monitor group I can have in Eyefinity is 6 monitors.

I would probably stick with 3 25s then. I've considered only running 3x1 in some of my games.

I hardly notice bezels in 5x1, but I think it's because I was previously running 3x2. I went from a 4x2(running 3x2 for eyefinity) down to a 5x1 setup mostly because FPS were impossible in that formation. Also switching back and forth from eyefinity to extended was laggy and just downright buggy whe...

I'm running 5x1 Crossfire with two eyefinity 6 5870s.

[quote]I tried to get the hotfix to work with 11.1 and 5x1 wasn't a configuration option for me. It seems like 5x1 would have been included in 11.1 since they supplied a hotfix in December just for it. Maybe it will be included in 11.2? Are your 5870's Eyefinity 6 editions? Yes, and I'm using 5x1, ...

Is there a hotfix for 5x1P in 11.1, because it's not an option for me? I installed 12.10a, but couldn't get 5x1 to work.

So, the new PSU helped out tremendously. I'm still having one problem though. At times my monitors will shut off one by one and then come back on one by one. During this time the computer is unresponsive, but audio/video will continue to play on the speakers. It takes at least a minute for me to reg...

1200w Corsair PSU coming sometime next week. I could play games in eyefinity until I enabled my overclock again. I guess the extra power drain is just too much for my dinky 700w PSU. If that does or doesn't fix my problem, I'll post here when i find out.

I'm running two Gigabyte 5870 2gb at stock settings. I can play for hours on one monitor, but when I enable eyefinity and try to game, I get auto-reboots almost instantly or within the first minute of attempting to play. I don't get a BSOD, so I can't really try and diagnose anything that way. I hav...

Still waiting on Humanscale to mail out my longer arms so I can have 8 monitors. They said it would ship yesterday, but I didn't get a tracking number. Anyway, I found out the hard way that you can't run 6 way eyefinity without a 5870 2gb card. SO, I got two of those and here are some shots of Dirt ...

I love my 6 monitor eyefinity setup. I just wish it wasn't limited to how many monitors you can cram onto one GPU. Being able to have an eyefinity grouping across two cards...think of those possibilities!

Hope I win!

Thanks everyone.

jc123, I don't plan on having a 3x3 setup, the monitor arm I have wouldn't support it, and I don't think my boss would either. I do plan to go 4x2 though. This is actually my work computer.

I've got 6 24" Dell monitors in a 3x 2 configuration. I'm using the Humanscale Paramount monitor arm to hold everything up. I'm actually waiting on Humanscale to ship out new arms that are 4 inches longer on each side. Their product, with it's original 16" arms, does not support 8 24" widescreen mon...
