Some Eyefinity benchmarks

Post by **Tamlin** » 06 Oct 2009, 05:20

I find that there has been very little benchmarks of Eyefinity setups, which is strange considering that many would want to know how it performs in those higher resolutions. If you have any benchmarks to add, please do. :)

Look closely at the SF4 benchmark, something is not right. The 5870 at 19x12 with 0xAA and 0xAF is pushing 92FPS, but then at *double* the resolution 38x10 with 8xAA and 16xAF its hitting 128FPS?!?!?!? 35% greater performance?!?!?!?!

Nice spotted! It doesn't seem right. A driver issue or did they mix the results?

3840x1080 benchmarks? Nope, pretty sure nobody cares.. Who would play games in a 2x1 configuration anyway?

I saw one on youtube. It doesn't look as appealing.

Sounds like the ATI AA bug is still there, turning on AA actually disables it and vice vera. Something along those lines.

That was disgusting. :( Anyone have any decent benchmarks with 3!!! screens? Two is a fail.

Do you guys only play FPS games?

Sports games would run fine on 2, several rpgs with over the shoulder view like the witcher, RTS would be fine.

Sure 3 is optimal, but until displayport adapters are cheaper or you can get a DP native monitor, 2 isn't that bad, and it will certainly be cooler than 1 for anything but a centered FPS game.
