Time to take the trim off the monitors and get them closer to each other.

Wonder if they'll make monitors with thinner trim just for this. I'm debating if i want to get a 24" or get two 22" for this. Decisions

Apparently there is a hack that will fix the issue with the menus and field of view.. someone came up with it for use with the Matrox TH2Go.. it might work with eyefinity..

I totally understand if you don't want to go to the trouble, but it looks like a simple hack.

It is under Camera hacks.

Alright, so this might seem a little silly. But I have a question. (PS your 3 screen setup looks VERY nice).

How does this work with two monitors? Do you just have a left hand side or a right hand side choice? Basically like turning off one side of your 3 monitor setup? On FPS does the crosshair go down the middle? What does it look like instead of 3x1 lets see some screens of 1x3.

Because alot of us might have to go from one to a second to a third in the lines of our monitor setup. So lets see some shots of what this will look like with two. Right now your the only real active poster who might be willing to figure this out. Because two monitors would be very nice, but I cant play a FPS with the middle of the screen missing

Thanks so much for the time

From the sounds of it you want to know how it looks eith two monitors in an eyefinity setup? well it FPS are unplayable, at least to me since the cross hair is in the middle where the bezels meet

So it does split ti right down the middle then? THAAAAT sucks.

I was hoping that there was some way to "offset" it so that the main monitor was in its standard spot, and I could just have the left or right hand side of a 3 monitor setup.

Can we get some screen reguardles, just to see whats its all about?

Also in a two montior setup, you CAN use two DVI only monitors right? (although 2 monitors right now is looking pretty useless without some way to off set where the crosshair or whatever is.

Actually, what game ISNT ruined with a giant tear down the middle of the screen?

Yes eyefinity will work with two DVI screens.
