Widescreen Gaming Forum

If I had to guess, I would say your issue, is related to this one: http://www.wsgf.org/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/nvidia-surround-gaming/21358/lower-frame-rates-side-monitors-680

Your probably better off going to Nvidia directly.

Yeah I'll probably end up making another post on ...

I posted this on the evga forums (http://www.evga.com/forums/tm.aspx?m=1555378) but didn't really get much help:

"So I just got my evga gtx 680 today and happily replaced my old gtx 465's in SLI. It's running like a dream - much quieter, much cooler, more powerful and requires less juice. I'm ...

To install I downloaded the drivers, extracted then edited the following:
ListedDevices.txt add lines for your GPU, in my case
DEV.1080 "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580"
DEV.1089 "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 "
DEV.108B "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 "

NvDisp.inf update 3 sections, again adding lines for ...

Wow they finally fixed the "not being able to maximize windows to a single screen while running surround" bug and the "taskbar spans all three displays in surround" bug too?

I wonder if that's just the new drivers, or you need the new drivers + the 680 to get those fixes?

[quote][quote]So it seems to be better mostly at lower resolutions, when you push more pixels, it seems to be on par or below the 7970, hmm might get to keep my 7970 then, cant wait for benchies @ 5760

Agreed I am looking for triple wide benches.

Well here are the bendhes: http://bit.ly ...

Im actually more interested in single GPU testing, if you get them, please make sure to post your observations on single GPU multi screen, THANKS!

I want to see a single 680 review for widescreen resolutions as well. Thinking about getting rid of my hot and noisy gtx 465's for a single 680, if ...

Yup, 1.2 screwed up Hayden's fix for me as well. CTD as soon as Skyrim tries to load. Tried the 1.1 TESV.exe and I'm having the same problems as everyone else. Fast travel doesn't work and the menus are screwed up (read a book and couldn't get out of the book screen, had to hit ESC and quit to the ...

If you ONLY care about books being fixed, HERE'S a quick solution:

You're playing on Steam, so while in-game you can press SHIFT - TAB to open the Steam overlay. From here, open the Steam web browser and simply google the name of the book you want to read. The Elder Scrolls wiki should have all ...

Seems like this site has been up and down today. Too many people refreshing this thread? :D

Thank you SO much Hayden for your awesome fix! You rock!

A couple minor things are still kind of wonky, though:

1) Alt-tabbing out and back in makes a lot of the textures go black or just disappear. I have to restart the game to fix this.
2) The loading screens with the helpful hints are ...

So I haven't seen anyone mention if Nvidia Surround is working? Or what the performance is like? Everyone that has posted uses ATI/Eyefinity.

Any news on this?

awesome!

what about the monsters on the edges of the screens? do they just stand around and not react to your presence until you get closer? does it feel like surround gives you an advantage?

yes - we'll get it working.

hayden, i admire your tenacity and skill when making fixes for games that don't support surround vision/eyefinity.

but since d3 is "online only" wouldn't running a resolution fix be kind of risky? pretty sure that would be considered a 3rd party program and ...

I don't have beta access, but I have downloaded the client and I can get to the menus. The highest resolution I can choose is 1920x1080 even though I have a nvidia surround setup. So it looks like at least the beta doesn't support nvidia surround.

I've also been looking forward to this. Bought ME1 and ME2 during the Steam summer sale only to find out they don't support nvidia surround... then I found this thread and was pumped! Haven't even played the games yet, been waiting for this to come out.

Bashiok (Blizzard CSR) responded to a post on the official Diablo 3 forums asking if the game would support a 3-monitor setup:

It's a single-monitor only game, and that's because the game literally only pulls info from the servers for a specific distance away from the character for bandwidth ...

Sweet! I just picked up ME1 and ME2 from the Steam sale (like $13 total!!) and was disappointed that they didn't support nvidia surround... but this thread has given me hope!
