| Post subject: | 3x Samsung 206BW w/Digital TH2G? |
I'm new to posting here, been lurking for a bit, and tried searching on the model number of my displays (206BW) and they dont come up in the Surround Gaming section of the forum. I purchased the 3 displays and stand before I even heard of the Digital TH2G, so I was quite stoked to hear about what it could do. Then I was dismayed that it could not support the max native resolution of my displays (1680x1050). Then I was stoked when I heard news of the upgraded firmware for widescreens! But lately, I have been a worried because apparently my displays can not run 1680x1050 @ 57hz. So it's been a roller coaster :( The manual for my displays say it only runs at 60hz at 1680x1050 I have tried to force the displays to 57hz or 56hz(which one should I be doing?) via registry hacks and the RefreshLock program, but I have had no luck and I am not sure I am doing it correctly. I have built all my computers(and maintained countless others for family), except for a Mac G4 and a laptop, so I think I know what I am doing. I dont own a TH2G yet, but santa may be bringing it to me, since its been on my list ever since hearing about it. I dont even have a video card to even push it at all right now, but next year I will be building a rig for it(see my sig). Right now I am running 2 video cards, one running the 2 side displays, and the other running the center. Will I be forced to run a lower resolution that the Digital TH2G and my monitors will both be happy with? Does anyone have any expeirence with the Samsung 206BWs and a TH2G? Sorry for the long winded post! Thanks for any help you guys can provide! |

If you could throw in an nVidia card it would be much easier to determine this. |

Hmm, IIRC, my last nVidia card I had I think I was getting major texture coruption issues. I will have to see If I have one somewhere in my piles of parts. I take it nVidia cards are easier to force to a different refresh rate? I read in another post that I might be able to force a refresh rate w/Powerstrip software for my ATI card? |
