Just tried it. Unfortunately, it did not work. I could get the image to fully display across three screens, however it was very stretched.

Two 7970's should be able to do this no problem since my single 6970 runs my Eyefinity setup no problem. Have you tried the latest 12.8 drivers? Also, does this happen in other games as well, or just in GW2?

I am curious on this as well. I know there is a 12.8 driver out, but since my PC didn't like the 12.7 driver I really don't want to install it if I don't have to. This may be something you can try.

I know over my USB adapter I can watch Netflix videos just fine. I mostly use it just to have a browser or e-mail open. I definitely would not use the USB adapters for gaming. I wanted the additional two monitors for Xslpit, web browser, TweetDeck... things like that while I am playing on my Eyefini...

I'll start off by saying I love my display real estate. :) I am going to be setting up my new office in about a month and am curious as to what the best way is to achieve this goal. Currently I am running an XFX 6970 with three monitors connected and configured for Eyefinity. I recently borrowed a U...

I would love to see an original Mario wallpaper. Something like the whole 1st world stretched across all 3 monitors. That would be awesome!

I'm glad too!

I connected my 22" monitor last night to test Eyefinity and it works great! The couple of games I threw at it played on full settings flawlessly. Definitely loving this card now!

OMG! It's fixed! I don't know why I didn't bother with this sooner, I guess I just figured it wouldn't make a difference. After looking at the manual for my mobo, it states to use the first PCIe slot (which is PCIe 3.0 ). Since my card isn't 3.0 I originally installed it in the next one down. After ...

That was one of my next steps only because I assume XFX would most likely ask me to do the same thing to verify that there isn't a problem with the PCIe slot or the machine itself. Two problems though. :) First, is that a while back I was troubleshooting another issue I thought to be video related. ...

Due to other issues with the build I was unable to test the card before the return time. I put in a support ticket with XFX the day after I started this thread and still have no response on it. I plan on calling and chewing them out for that... I just need to find the time to do it. :) Is anyone els...

I am running Catalyst 12.4 with driver package 8.961-120405a-137224C-ATI. OS is Windows 7 Pro x64. I tested again using only one of the Acer monitors but that did not seem to help. I installed GPU-Z and grabbed the log file as well as a screen shot of the application itself. I got the latest version...

Sorry to bump this thread, but does anyone else have anymore suggestions? Is anyone else running the XFX 6970 and having any issues similar to this?

Here is what I did tonight: @Bifurk8 and Blevar I have included some screen shots in the zip below. Basically I disabled/lowered everything possible in CCC under the 3D Application Settings (prior to this, they were at the defaults). Yet when I was running Saints Row under low settings without Eyefi...

Thanks for the response. Also, thanks for the username comment, I rarely get those. :) This is a new rig that I have built and have been having this problem since day one so the frame rates have never been higher than what they are as of my post. I will try removing those items while playing on high...

So now that my PC is finally running right (other than this issue) and all my RMAs finally made it back to me, I am now troubleshooting issues with my video. You can see my PC setup in my signature, but as far as my displays go, I have two Acer G245HQ monitors with a PS3 3D display in the middle for...
