NVIDIA Surround Resolution Problem

Post by Homer2123 »

Hello Guys i have a Problem with my Nvidia Surround set up.

I have these 3 Monitors :

Asus VS238N -DVI
Asus VG278H -DVI
LG WV2361 -HDMI

and all 3 running with a gtx 680.

Here is my problem :

On normal desktop all 3 working fine together on a resolution 1920x1080 each.

When i activate nvidia Surround they change the resolution to 1680x1050 for each and it looks realy bad :(.

The highest resolution i could activate is 5040x1050 but i want to play 5760x1080 thats why i bought 3 monitors with the same resolution.

I hope you could help me i have the latest driver installed .

My guess and this is just a guess, but with 3 differing monitors the driver is maybe looking for a refresh rate that is common amongst them and the resolution you stated is maybe where that sweet spot is.

All screens have to be synced together and if the refresh rates aren't exactly the same or close enough, the driver probably looks for a resolution/refresh rate supported by each monitor that is the closest between 3 differing monitors.

Hard to say what's going on or if there is a fix for it.

Have you tried different drivers? Have you tried connecting them differently? Have you looked at each monitors resolutions/refresh rates and compared them?
