So I was wondering what setup I should build when I can get the money and I came up with the Following: 24" 24" 24" (Used in Eyefinity)[3x1920x1200] ------------- (My Stand) 19" 19" 19" (Done With TH2Go) [3x1440x900] [This is a Flight simulator setup with dash controls on the bottom screens and the flight shown on the top screens] I was wondering if it was possible to fun the Triplehead2go off of the 5870 cards. Is it? I haven't seen anyone try yet. Because I'm thinking of selling my 4870 1GB when the 6 port card comes out. Also I know I'm going to need an active adapter for the TH2Go. |

It should work fine, the 5870 can run 2 independant display set ups according to the website. It will see the TH2Go as a single screen just like your current card. Obviously this is just theory, but there is no reason for it not to work. |

I dont know if the 5800 drivers support triplehead resolutions, and they may never support, according to the admin of ATI forums, this is a matrox problem, not ATI`s. |

But remember the problem res is 5040, NVidia has snags (in Vista and Win7, anyway) as well. However you will be using your TH2Go monitors at a lower res, so you will be fine. |

Umm no, good point. But certainly easy to test for someone. You gotta hope they don't get rid of stuff that worked before...like NVidia did in Vista :cry: EDIT: I am too much of an optimist LOL |
