Nvidia drivers not really ready yet for surround, check back to the nvidia drivers again next week.

marat2k6 - Let us know your results once the new nVidia Surround drivers come out (hopefully in the next couple of days as they were promised for end of June).

I have one GTX 470 + 8800 GT with SoftTH for triplehead'n, but am interested in how well the new surround drivers perform, specifically:

* How many games are supported
* Do DX10 and DX11 work with surround? (SoftTH only works dx9)
* What resolutions are supported
* Landscape, Portrait, Mixed Modes? (thinking about getting a 27" LCD then turning my 22" side panels to portrait mode, SoftTH supports this, but doubt Surround will...)
