Hi guys, newbie to eyefinity here. Just got my first triple monitor setup running and I'm having a very small issue.

When I'm playing a lot of games, the degree of perspective on the two side monitors is massive. It makes things next to you absolutely huge, then you turn your characters head and they snap back to reality. I have my side monitors slightly angled, maybe 30degrees from the center. I've tried with the screens in a straight line and the perspective isn't really a problem, except then I can't really see the side screens and I lose all the immursion bonuses.

It seems that the games are trying to force a bit of perspective (assuming that I will be playing on one screen) and that is just being carried on until it gets silly. I've tried to get a screenshot of this happening, but they look completely normal and everything is nicely squared off. Unfortunately, lets take COD MW3 as an example: I can see a straight roof line in the central monitor, but when it continues to the side, the line will go off on a completely different angle.

I have gone thought the catalyst bezel compensation tool etc and everything seems to be lined up. Outside of fullscreen games everything is perfect. I run EVE in a window across 3 screens and there is issue with perspective there at all.

As you can tell I don't really know what I'm talking about so if anyone does manage to decipher this post, any tips would be appreciated.

Many thanks
