Thread Starter 
So I'm here sitting pretty with a triple monitor setup and 580 SLI and I can only run skyrim on ONE screen?! Am I being retarded or is this true... I see NO higher option than god damn 1920x1080...

SADNESS...

You're not the only one. People are getting crappy framerates and single monitor only displays all over the place: http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/multi-monitor-gaming/multi-monitor-gaming/18156/eyefinity-skyrim-confirmed

Pray for a fix soon.

Hey x


To run it in eyefinity mode, navigate to mydoucments/mygames/skyrim/ then open skyrimprefs.ini

Change IsizeW= to the width of your monitor
Then IsizeH = to the height

The menus dont work that well, but in game is excellent x

Try changing the FOV in console?

Open the console and type fov XXX (X being the variable)

Do you no what FOV does? It's got nothing to do with the problem op is/was having. As said just change the resolution manually in the cfg file.

No need to be aggressive.

I noticed FOV stretches stuff out when you set it too high and thought it might help out when using an extra wide resolution. Was just a thought, no harm in making a suggestion, anything's possible.
