Now I know that the developers are on the fence with eyefinity supporting portrait x landscape x portrait, but comon..... look at how ideal it is to have that nice 30" flanked by two 20"s in portrait. You get the awesome vertical height and you don't have it too wide on the sides of your peripheral vision. Please I am not trying to flame, I am just trying to build awareness (which is what we do here at widescreen gaming fourm isnt it) for this awesome awesome screen option/setup that is more popular than the developers think.

PLEEEEASSSE INCLUDE PLP options with Eyefinity

Here is my setup with Over Flanders Fields using SoftTH because that is my only option so far :(

I spot a Logitech G940 too... :D

Does look good!

Am going with 3 x U2410's though myself, can't afford to put so much into one display only (however nice a 30" does look) plus 1600x1200 panels seem to be getting very rare to match up with them.

Yeap, the G940 is fantastic! I got rid of my CH gear and will never look back.

I got the 1600x1200s refurbished on ebay for $159 a piece, which includes free shipping and a three year warranty from Dell. So if you can score a bargain on a 30" then you can pick the 1600x1200s up for cheap!


And yea, I haven't had a chance to play with the colors yet, but hope to get em relatively close!

Subtle. Very subtle. :P

But funny. 8)

I do like the idea of PLP, but ultimately AMD (ATi) have to prioritise something above what is arguably a 'niche' option right now. Once EyeFinity is more widely adopted, then the niche is bigger. Kinda like PLP for TripleHead2Go. :)

Lol, thanks paradigm! Yea, all I ask is for something...maybe they bring SoftTH on board and expand eyefinity that way. Because, right now, playing OFF with all three screens going I can honestly say there is no way I can ever go back to single screen gaming...I am spoiled to the max!

I've always wanted to do this in order to make a mech cock-pit feel. I also wish for eyefinity to be more flexible.

EDIT: This also means that Bezel management would be annoying, but still worth adding the support for PLP even without bezel management.
