Eyefinity and Windows 8

Post by Matthew94 »

I'm sitting on a few windows 8 keys but don't know whether to upgrade. I have eyefinity on windows 7 and switching modes is easy with using Win+P.

I'm temped to upgrade to windows 8 but I've seen a few posts here from 6+ months ago with people citing issues with eyefinity on W8. Have these been fixed? Does it work as well as W7 now?

Thanks for any help you give. I used the search, came up with no recent posts.

Hi Matt

I've been running eyefinity on W8 since December when I got my 3rd monitor. No issues with W8 from my end

Thanks very much. Unless anyone else chimes in soon I'll go ahead and upgrade.

Yeah I would upgrade I have been running 8 since beta stages and have never had any problems video-wise.
Should be fine. Windowskey+P still works, looks a little fancier even.
