I have been running eyefinity since the HD5000 series cards and recently upgraded to a HD7970. Performance is great, but I used to be able to run games on just the center display if they did not support eyefinity. Since my upgrade if I run a game @1920x1200 it is displayed on all three displays. Previously it would black out the two outside displays. Anyone else having this issue? I assume it is a driver issue, but want to know for sure.

Thanks

Did you by any chance owned a 5870x2 or some kind of Crossfire setup? outside monitors only get disabled when using crossfire.
