Trouble with monitor not scaleing with Eyefinity

Post by TimeCheck »

I have 3 24" monitors, 2 of them are AOC 2436V and have a max res of 1920x1080 and the other one is a little taller it's a Sceptre X24WG and has a max res of 1920x1200.

When I extend the desktops the image is even (top and bottom) throughout the displays. My taller display scales and there are bars on top and bottom which is ok. When I enable my Eyefinity group, my taller monitor doesn`t scale to match the other 2. Is there a way to make this possible with Eyefinity?

I'm using a XFX 6850 Black Edition card. 2 DVI monitor outputs and 1 DisplayPort output with an Accell active adapter.

I get this when using my non-native Eyefinity resolutions (even though all my displays are the same native res..) I got around it by changing the aspect ratio behaviour in my displays' OSD.

You can also try to alter the display-specific scaling option in CCC. Open CCC (Catalyst Control Centre), then click "My Digital Flat-Panels", then click on the Properties section. Select the display you wish to change the options for at teh top, then select/change GPU scaling.

Abram,

I've tried to adjust the GPU scaling option and it works when the desktops are in extended mode but not when I create a desktop group (eyefinity). My taller screen which is in the middle streches to fit the whole screen.

Is their an option in the monitor OSD? As Abram said.

On my "old" 20WGX2 it is called "Expansion Mode" and if I recall correctly, with this monitor I have, you can select 1:1 (no scaling), Scale to fit aspect ratio, so it maximised the horizonal/ verticle keeping aspect ratio, or fill, to fill the whole screen. Try looking there.

Looking at the manual, you can only do it via the monitor in the VGA mode (not DVI).

It is listed under the Geometry > Format option.

You would need to set that to 16:9. That would make the 1920x1080 signal not scaled.
