Screen tearing with Eyefinity with SIMILAR interfaces

Post by posilepton »

I've had this persistent problem across both of my AMD cards in which my rightmost monitor has a very obvious horizontal screen tear.

My setup includes :
2x Samsung B2440
1x Samsung BX2440

So they're pretty much the same screens with the BX2440 being the LED variant which I have set up in the middle. Each of them is connected using exact same DVI to DP cables to my R9 Nano. I have the latest drivers installed (16.4.1) with Crimson so there should not be any software problems. I have tried the same setup with my older card, a 6870, and it shares the same problem although that setup included 2 DVI to DVI and 1 DVI to DP which I initially thought was the problem. However now that I have a cutting edge card with 3 DP, shouldn't this be fixed?

If you physically switch the left and right monitor.
Does is still show up? On the same monitor?

Yeah I've tried swapping around the cables and it only appears on the right most monitor. I can guarantee it's not a monitor fault though because the monitor works perfectly when in a single monitor setup.

So it appears always on the right monitor in an eyefinity Setup.
Either delete whole windows and reinstall from scratch or file a bug report form with AMD.

This issue is on a completely new build though, reinstalling Windows shouldn't change a thing. Considering the R9 Nano is pretty much identical to a Fury, this should be an anomaly unless no one uses eyefinity with the top tier AMD cards right?
