[little off topic] BTW, i irregularly have "screen drops" / black screen on dp monitor for 1 to 2 seconds on my 6970 eyefinity setup with 2x mini dp to dp monitors + 1 dvi... without any mst hub

Fot those who are interested, yesterday i finaly found a proper review (still only 3 pages) of the Club 3d MST display hub.
Its from a (dutch) site i read daily:

I second that!
Saves a lot of typing

Tried some Metro Last Light!

Thanks Haldi, for all your effort in this post!
These numbers are very informative, but they also scare me.
It seems that Eyefinity in crossfire is still not what we would like to see.
But can you tell me Haldi, how is the game experience?
Is it playable in your ...

Well, for me its all about the pixel count.
With these 21:9 monitors the vertical pixel count is stil 1080, like any full HD monitor.
Only the horizontal pixel count with 2560 pixels is 640 more then 1920 with full HD.
Thats only 1/3 wider then a comman full HD monitor.

As an eyfinity gamer with 3 ...

I hope you will be able to produce a setup that is competitive in price with a monitor setup similar in size. Just the lack of bezels is a huge plus point. Possible better perception with custom screens (wings/flared and such) is another big plus over monitor setups. And finaly if over sea delivery ...

...crossfire 7990's... 5 monitor portrait setup
MMmmm Sounds very tasty!
I am hoping to read your results soon, especially about the view angles (because TN panel) in portrait, the performance of 2x7990 with eyfinity (possible stuttering), the games that perform well enough in FPS to realy ...

In the Netherlands 3 shops are now listed, but availabillity/delivery is more then 12 days...

And when i look for other countries Club3d has resellers in:

i only see Europe, Japan, Pakistan, Russia and South-Africa but no USA?

Sadly they are focusing on single display performance and not Eyefinity
OMG! WHY for crying out loud?
The only people i know who XFire (verb) also have Eyfinity (mostly 3x1 landscape). And they are very sad about the stutters.

I have been a silent reader of WSGF for 8 years now. Just when i ...

depends on the 7970.... but the point of this card is that it allow 5 ultra high bandwidth connections for things like 5x1 120Hz and 5x1 2560x1600.
Offcourse you are quite right. And i would love to have used this new "official" 7990 if it had 5 dp's so i would be sure to have no tearing issues ...

doesn't both crossfire and SLI ignore the RAM on the second card?
You are almost right. This is 1 card with 2 GPU's. Both GPU's have 3GB of RAM each. The RAM is "mirrored" because 1 processes the even frames and the other the uneven frames, so the total usable RAM on the card for a game is only ...

After reading (more like studying) several reviews of this card and all the relevant micro-stuttering articles i must say that i am seriously interested in this card for my long desired 5x1P setup. But...for me it al depends on the new (miracle) catalyst driver that will counter the stutters.

BTW a ...

I'm curious why nobody bothered to give there opinion, perhaps because there are plenty ofreviews on 21:9 monitors to find now. And for IPS vs TN... i would take IPS everytime, even for FPS games. Just my 2 cents...

Have been waiting so long for this hub, like many others i presume.
But now it seems i need 2 of these to enable 5x1P (and hopefully 5x1P+1) with my 6970.
And with most games being so demanding i better get a 7970/7990 first...

Remarkable its a Dutch company to first deliver the long awaited MST ...

If anyone is playing this game in surround and having success i'd sure like to know!!


I have played Civ5 for about 2 years on a 3x23"P res of 3240x1920.
No errors at all.

Can it be the eyefinity instead of the nvidia Surround?
Or maybe the Portrait instead of the Landscape?
Xfire and SLI are a ...
