I got wind that the Dell U2913WM 21:9 Ultra Widescreen was available for sale this morning, by way of a tweet this morning. It pointed out the DP 1.2
OUTPUT on the panel, and linked to the
product page. In addition to the DP 1.2 output, it also has a Mini-DP input. This would be welcome to all the AMD users who have Mini-DP outputs, and the MacBook Pro users (like myself) who have Thunderbolt outputs.
I've got a panel on order, and will start testing games (and playing) as soon as it gets here. Expect a lot of news, videos and updates once we get the panel in house.

I'm going to see if I can fit three on the WSGF Stand. Maybe if we get enough donations I can talk the wife into a couple more. ^_^

Up to 4x 1920x1200 via DP1.2
DP1.2 bandwidth = 17.28 Gbit/s
4x1920x1200 = 13.27Gbit/s
3x2560x1080 = 11.94Gbit/s
Should be a non issue.

edit: *gg* i Don't believe DELL would want to Sponsor WSGF 3 Monitors for the worlds First Daisychain review?

Talk about reducing cable clutter. I am going to test with one of my 1080p panels, so I can report out on how it works. Got a shipping notice yesterday. Will be here on Tuesday Nov-20.

Looking forward to this review. Looks really nice. This could be what I have been looking for. I am getting tired of having to tinker around with every game so it will work with my Eyefinity setup.

I am also considering buying one of those monitors (and maybe 2 additional ones if I am really impressed

) . Have you received yours ?
It is not supposed to be precisely a gaming monitor so it would be good to know if it is "gaming compatible": limited input lag and decent reactivity.

So you think games will support 2560*1080 resolution?

I am hoping? I bet it will be a mixed bag as usual.

After watching the video I want one. Currently I don't use a monitor stand, but probably need one for such a setup. Would need to place the three u2311h above the u2913, just like skip did. Have to wait until this monitor is released in Europe though. Would love to play games at 2560x1080 to have a middle ground option performance wise.
