Recommend Surround?

I had my first triple screen experience with Eyefinity and though I love the concept it has left me feeling repeatedly frustrated. From difficulty in acquiring displayport to hdmi adaptors and then experiencing screen tear. I have thought that this should not be this hard again and again.

So before I jump ship I want to know is the grass greener in the green camp? Does surround have any technical issues when setting up surround gaming with 3 monitors all with hdmi inputs only? Gaming in 5760 x 1080 what is the minimum nvidia card configuration I should look at budget wise?

Most importantly, for those of you who have had both, which do you recommend for multi screen gaming AMD or Nvidia and why?

Have you read this... http://www.wsgf.org/article/red-vs-green-vs-blue-v2
It is quite an informative article and might answer some of your questions.

i started triple screen on amd, but got so sick of tearing, vsync issues and dodgy connections and swapped to nvidia and never regretted it.

I can't speak from personal experience, having been on AMD for the past 4 generations, but I still recommend NVidia hands down whenever asked. They've got adaptive v-sync, they've got frametimes under control, and they don't require DisplayPort.

Basically, everything I complain about with AMD has been addressed by NVidia.
