Widescreen Gaming Forum

hi i am using a dual core 42.ghz cpu.
4 gig memory
2 4870 in crossfire.
can any1 tell me what the max resolution on each screen i can go with in crossfire.
i have read somewhere thsat i cant do crossfire in 1440by900 x3.
is this right if so i might be better of buying 3 nec 19 inch 4.3 screens.
thx in responce.

Hello
Ati cards can't go beyond 3x1440x900 using TripleHead2Go, supposedly because their DVI outputs can't go below 60 Hz (you need 57 Hz to achieve 3x1680x1050). Crossfire has nothing to do with it though...

You're right. Sounds odd to me. Well you'd probably go for 3x 5:4 screens then :?
