HD4870x2, what setup i can run?

Post by Zarkus »

Hello so this shall be my first post ( Yay!).

Im looking help for my problem, my problem is quite simple if i have setup like this:

E6750
Asus R.O.G Striker II Formula
4gb Ram
Sapphire HD4870x2, 2gb ram

What setups i can run? I can use vista or XP.

Are am i able to run 3x 1680x1050 or 3x 1440 x 900 ?

The vista problem is only with the latest NVidia drivers and 5040x1050. However AFAIK (I use NV) the best you can get with an ATi card is the 1440x900x3.

Actually that 1440x900 would be brilliant. Then i would have 3x19" wides for über gaming and my 22" will be movie screen while i farm gold at wow ^^

Excellent. Apart from all the faffing we seem to have with drivers and stuff (which I accept as being part of being at the cutting edge) Surround Gaming is just awesome.......

:triplewide

So get out there and buy it :)

If you are using 3x19"s, you can try to mount the 22" one on top of the middle 19" monitor :P . Like, wall mount it or something :lol: .
