Default EyeFinity from ATI

I see the demos about using 3 30 inch screens to render 1 nice big image and gaming so what about the nvidia guys?

I would love to play left4dead on 3 lcd's.

Matrox triplehead2go with SLI enabled. I have one of the units
Crysis on three 40" 1080p monitors (which is why not all of them are filled - drivers probably fixed now):

nVidia, at the moment, has nothing of the sort. You'll have to go with another add-in card like Beavis mentioned.

From what I hear, though, it works rather well.

Thats what i wanna do with 3 screens is to spred the game accross them but the easiest way is to buy ati 5870's for now until Nvidia has a solution.

Good setup as usual darth.

Make sure at least one of your monitors has DisplayPort, Eyefinity needs it apparently.
_______________________
If you meant FSX then that should be ok as you can make new screens and select whats in em, Windowed though.

Getting 3 screens to work in a game is a matter of being able to select an appropriate resolution and FOV and should be included in games by the devs, Unfortunately the most they include is 16:9



Bioshock has a FOV patch ,Does that work in 7 x64?, No resolution patch though I guess...
