Ok cool. Using the DVI cables that come with the monitors should be sufficient right? Meaning I won't have to go out and get anything extra to run this Surround setup? Thanks for the help/response.

Yes.
NVSurround requires that all monitors are connected using the same connection. i.e DVI Whereas Eyefinity allows you to mix and match connectors. I notice that you only have a single 580 3gb in your sigrig, you will need a second to run 2D surround, you will need tri-sli to run 3d surround (correct me if im wrong, but you need 2 connections per monitor, which would equate to 3 x 2 DVI port cards.) |

Played cod 2 for five hours straight. Got a little motion sickness and called it quits for the night. Still kinda playing around with bezel correction and the left screen's color (still a bit dark but this seems common,
) |

If I don't get the bezel correction just right, it makes me so queasy when gaming. Like, run-to-the-toilet-pronto-want-to-throw-up queasy. Even being a couple of pixels off does it.
![]() I can't get my monitors all the same colour anyway, as the centre one is different to the two sides. They're 'close enough' that it doesn't annoy me in games, though... although it drives me totally nuts when I'm trying to do photo-editing. I have a feeling a high-gamut 2560x1600 screen will soon be on my shopping list for my single-screen system, so I can use that for photo work. |
) is not helping either. My left monitor is a bit dark and if you tilt slightly it does help but not facing the center screen directly. I'm going to switch them around and then start playing around with the color adjustments. I also have a modified monitor stand, thus its not perfect and could be lending to the motion sickness (I'll be picking up an ergotech one when I get my tax refund next year).
