Thanks for the tip, Haldi.
Do you know what physical configurations the MST products support? It doesn't say in the product manual. For example, do the monitors have to be in a physical Nx1 config? |

| Thanks @Peer_Review, hope your ma's recovering all right. I did some digging into PCI lanes and throughput, and bought some new hardware. I know everyone says that video cards can't saturate x16, but I don't think they're considering driving ten 1080p monitors. I haven't done the math. However, I di... |

Makes total sense, @Peer_Review, thanks for taking the time to explain.
Why do you say that PCI Express 3.0 would alleviate the issue?
Looks like I'm going to upgrade the motherboard and report back with the results. |

| Some more experimenting... I changed the resolution of my window and when the total number of pixels (width x height) are small enough (eg: 2200 x 1080) I cannot replicate the issue. When I exceed a certain threshold of pixels, the framerate drops dramatically when I span the window across displays ... |

| I tried out a handful of different combinations and can confirm that the issue is not due to the flipping/rotation. I can even replicate the issue with Eyefinity off, with just one monitor plugged into each card, and no rotation (or with, it doesn't matter). In other words, I seem to be taking a per... |

| Ok, here's some info. The symptom is: a window w/ 3d animation runs fine on the lower row. When displayed on the top row, it has a subtle "jerk" that occurs every ~1 second or so. When the window spans both the top and bottom row, the program reports the same FPS but there is some signific... |

| Using two VisionTek 7750 Eyefinity 6 cards. I went the cheap route to make sure the config would work and to determine some baseline "bang for buck" performance numbers. |

| Just a follow up. After upgrading the graphics cards to 7000-series cards, I get the expected resolution. |

| Hi players, I have successfully set up a 5x2 configuration that I can run as extended Windows desktops or as two independent SLS using Eyefinity. I am using two VisionTek 7750s with six displayports each. I have the top row of 5 screens hooked up to one card, and the bottom row hooked up to the seco... |

| Hi players, I am using an ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 edition to drive five 1920x1080 displays. For some reason, when creating an SLS display group, the resolution is 8000 x 900 instead of the expected 9600x1080. This is a Windows 8.1 machine, and I am using active DisplayPort to HDMI adapters.
