| Post subject: | Vision surround shuttering |
I have never used Vision surround until yesterday so my question may be very navies. I normally run my games in 3-way SLI and I decided to try the surround out, I have COD Black OPS running at 5760X1200 but I am getting a flicker on one of my monitors.(see video below) Youtube video, See the monitor to the far left, it flickers while in the game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7X2rsJY5X0 Any ideas, a point in the right direction can help as well.

OK, I had no idea I could run X3 SLI with thee monitors on, use to not be able to do that. It seems the shuttering followed the card, I also took out my cards and blow them out and reseated them, I have seen this kind of activity in the past when a SLI bridge is not seated properly. I guess the next step is to rearrange the cards on the motherboard to see if its a card problem or motherboards or even the SLI bridge. Updated Video of the problem is X3 SLI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yNanv8D5goM I changed my settings.

"It seems the shuttering followed the card" Can you elaborate - what do you mean by that? Does the flickering happen only in gaming mode? Does it happen in all your games? And does it happen if you use dual-card SLI instead of tri-card SLI (you can test this w/o removing the card by dedicated 1 of them to Physx)? |

"It seems the shuttering followed the card" It only happens in gaming mode, last night I changed the plugs that the monitors are plugged it which changed what monitor was plugged in to the card that seems to have the problem, so it moved from the left monitor to the right monitor. I do not have any other games install but it also does it on Heaven Benchmark v2.0. It does it in Dual and Tri-SLI, the first video I posted I was not running Tri-SLI in Vision surround yet. I have another Tri-SLI bridge at work, I am going to get that and try that tomorrow, if that does not work i will take this card to work and try it in my computer there, if the card is bad I want to get it RMA'ed ASAP, Any tips are still welcome. |

So let us just establish things clearly. You changed the plugs on the monitors on the video card end? And in doing so you identified that the culprit is the video card and not the monitor? There are three variables here and your explanation is sort of vague: there are monitors, there are cords, and there are video cards. Now which cords are you using? All HDMI? DVI? You should be able to narrow down whether there's a hardware problem with a specific video card by switching around cables and cable types. If you don't simply have a faulty cable, you either have a faulty video card or a faulty specific output on an otherwise good video card (still should RMA it obviously). |

You should be able to narrow down whether there's a hardware problem with a specific video card by switching around cables and cable types. Ok I have three cards each card has two outputs. So I have card 1, 2 and 3 each card has two DVI outputs A and B, I also have three monitors (from left to right) AZ, AX, and AC. I started with (also shown above in the screen shoots) monitor AX plugged into 1-A, monitor AC plugged into 1-B and Monitor AZ plugged into 2-A. Card 3 has nothing plugged into it. What I did was unplug the DVI cable coming from monitor AC that’s plugged into card 2-A and moved it to DVI output 3-A then moved AX from 1-B to the output 2-A that I just took AC off of. So know I have a monitor on each card. So know the problem changed monitors because I changed what monitor was plugged into 2-A. You did bring up a good point I did not think about the cable. But it did it on AZ’s DVI cable and AC’s DVI cable, so I am guessing it’s not the monitor or the cable. So I still have four things it could be, the card, card output 2-A, SLI Bridge or PCI slot. |

I may be way off track here, but I had a moitor that always played up with green lines appearing over it to varying degrees and intermittently. I would unplug the monitor, re-plug it back in and all would be ok. most times for a period of time. sometimes minutes, sometimes hours sometimes days before it re-appeared, I swapped cables, monitor positions, and even to different slots. I though it was the monitor on its way out. Untill I changed the orientation of the screens, ie I had a 2-1-3 display arrangement, when I re-installed the drivers and set it up to a 3-1-2 arrangement the green stopped appearing, and never returned. I have no idea why and it also used to happen with my TH2go. By setting up the monitors the way they are shown in the set up screen, as opposed to the way they were sitting on my desk, I havnt had a problem since. Like I say, could have nothing to do with your problem, but it might be worth a shot. |
