  • uuggh.. 

  • I would get annoyed with all these flashy things in your case. Looks so crap

  • @CorssairTF2 Actually making a flashy computer paid off. Go look @ computerpoweruser dut com and pull up the Oct issue. My computer is on the front cover and on page 40-41 which I got 1500 cash and over 2000K in free hardware.

  • @Elmnator1 Grats on that. Thing is I've seen tons of systems without lights and just for ME they are way better looking. No offence ofc mate.

    Tell me, Im about to buy a computer and I cannot decide between one single 27" 120hz monitor and 3 24" Dell IPS monitors (both options about same price). The thing Im afraid about Eyefinity is that my new PC will start strugling quicker on that huge resolution. When FullHD would last for way longer time.

    Is Eyefinity really worth it?

  • @CorssairTF2 The new Asus 120Hz monitor with Lightboost Technology is a badass monitor. Should be out in a few weeks or so. But you should buy a Nvidia card if you do... at least a 570/580. If you are doing Eyefinity I would suggest 2 6970's. Just to let you know BF3 struggles a tad with 2 6970's If you have the money you should do a 6990 and a 6970 for Trifire. I have 2 6970's right now and I have to turn down to medium/high to get decent frame rates. Those Dell IPS monitors are a good choice.

  • @Elmnator1 Asus monitor is already out mate. Generally what I was planning to do with a single monitor was to use 580SLI. When Eyefinity came as an additional option I told myself that Im gonna use 3x6950 or 6990+6950@70.

    That's not good mate, I mean changing settings to high/medium. Im a highest settings fanboy unfortunately, but eyefinity seems so cool...

    Im so confused, gonna buy PC today but I dunno what to go for...

  • you should put up like upto 20 monitors in a circle and sit in the middle to play it...just so that you can see your back even when your looking straight in the game ahaha lol

  • @RaiUbros it still only shows exactly the same stuff as with 1 monitor......

  • How would I go about building a rig to support this?

  • @ThePeiceofgrass

    If you're starting from scratch I'd recommend an i5 2500(k) the k is 10 bucks more but only difference is it's overclockable. For gpu you could get a 6870, or anything above (6950, 6970, 6990), nvidia wise I'd recommend a 570 or up (580, 590). That's the barebones, everything else is preference mostly, but if you have any questions just message me.

  • Major fisheye, you can do the same thing on a single screen, no advantes whatsoever

  • OMG u_u , my pentium D 2,80ghz and my Nvidia 9500gt wept before that scene.

  • That looks really cool not like that crapy nvidia 3D vision that only reduces your gaming skills.To a camper a set like this wont be much use,but i can image how i can really use that going into close battle with my saiga 12 and have almost 180 degress vision,just to rape those camping back stabers :) .

  • @megaslayercho its not a complete 180 its more like seeing the seen with your own eyes instead of through a monitor. and for all you worried about the monitors bezel i don't even see it i am running three 20' acer leds on a msi r6950 twin frozr II

  • Cool! only con about infinity gaming is side monitor black panel disturbs my gaming..Is it possible to remove black panel and attached it with other monitor?

  • I suggest mounting the monitors horizontally, so you dont have to turn your head while playing. but thats just my opinion, do what you want

  • Are the L/R monitors 100% extra periphery view, or is some of the main view stretched onto them?

  • Does eyefinity peripherals give you a big advantage?

  • @ILiekSteakZz

    Well then get a job, save a few hundos and join the club. Considering the money spent Id say I got cheated bro :P

  • y does everyone buy crappy acer monitors! :S

  • @ILiekSteakZz Yeah I've heard that before. But its usually from people that can't afford this kind of system. It isn't like im running a hack to do this. It works this way out of the box. The technology is available to everyone. So its not a hack. It just means I can afford it ....

  • @Elmnator1 mmmh what cards are you using

    

  • do you have a larger FOV?

    what about the anoying black bars

  • will a i7 3.4 Ghz could overclock..and a 5850 overclocked...with 8gb ddr3..run this game with good fps without eyefinity?

  • Oh god

    dude i have an HD 5850 with eyeinfinity, but only a 3.2Ghz processor, will it be enough for 3 monitors and max settings??

    i just read your i7 is running at 4.2Ghz and I was like O_o

  • @nachcozz with you running at 3.2 and a 5850 you will struggle a little bit but it wont be terrible .. if your running eyefinity you should maybe get 40 frames .. U might have to turn down some of the graphic settings

  • @Elmnator1 Okk, thanks so much :)

    I`ll see what happens

  • @Elmnator1 I have 3.2 6 core Thuban AMD Proccesor ! Will it struggle ?? I think not :S

  • @nachcozz

    I have a HD 5830 slightly overclocked with a Athlon II x4 clocked to 3.3Ghz. I can run BC2 maxed out with HBAO off and AA x2 on 3, 23.6in monitors with about 45-50fps.

  • @JesusLikesPork Oh thats soo cool

    do you really need AA or is it the same?

  • @nachcozz

    The more you spread your resolution out the more you will notice rough edges. Turning AA off in eyefinity makes it look like XBOX quality. If you can at least run AAx2 I would recommend it. But the trade off of 3 monitors for a little less image quality is worth it.

  • @JesusLikesPork thats if u like looking at black crosses, i much rather play on my 32in HDTV in 1080p over that crap any day of the week.

  • How did you get you HUD to display only on the middle screen, my HUD is far right and far left, as if it was one screen. Are there options to have HUD placed in the center screen only?

  • @angdman

    To my knowledge there isn't any option to move the HUD.

  • wow my eye!!! i think im blind.

  • WTB This whole gaming set for 3000$ on Ebay!!!

  • @mulanfer You want to buy my system for 3000.00 ?

  • @Elmnator1 Would you sell?

  • @mulanfer selling a similar build on ebay for 3000$ actually, Pm me if u want some info

  • @rhenzinger with 3k, you can get an i7 930, 3 580, evga clasified mobo. so far 2.1k, 900$ for case ram and stuff. plenty

  • Is the display on the left configured badly or is it just the color shift of TN panels ? If so, then there is no point of having eyefinity with cheapass TN displays.

  • you need to turn vsync on

  • I saw this at some store once! I hogged it for like 5 hours, I finally had to get off when an employee told me to.

  • wow, flash computer :D

  • It's mini DP video card? You're using mini DP to DP adapter attached to the apple adapter? Please explain your connection because there is too many people like me having flickering troubles,Thank you!

  • native displayport LCD ?

    or you using an adapter,becouse I have 3 24in eyefinity mode, 2 DVI and 1 DP but Displayport is flickering as crazy

  • @mexchato I'm using the Apple adapter. Its in one of my videos. Eyefinity how to.

    There is a sapphire adapter on newegg for around 30 bucks that I heard works good.

  • PC de Baiano

  • this is cheating

  • @Newbpwng possibly but for at least 500 dollars its magnificent.

  • Nice... No one can knife you by the side

  • Elmnator1 - important question. You see the ammo counter - was that positioned like that by default, or is it a setting or third party app that puts it there - in all other games i've tried the ammo counter / health bar (mainly for TF2 and L4D2) are right over in the far right corner which can be a bit annoying. Please answer soon, im getting two more 28 inch screens on wednesday :P

  • Damn that's a sweet setup. Do the street lights outside your house go out when you fire it up?

    I'm on the verge of buying a very cheap 5830 but don't think it'll handle Eyefinity well enough for me to invest in the new monitors (plus bigger desk needed!)

  • Bad Company 2 kicks ass in 3D with the Buttkicker Gamer 2, would be awesome with 3 monitors, and I also can't wait for DICE to roll out a patch to use Headtracking, damn that would be VERY immersive :-)

  • awesome. nice work

  • Which drivers are you using?

  • @Luky1Jay 10.4's still ... 10.5 and up all have issues

  • @Elmnator1 Yeah sweet, just downgraded from 7 to 4 last night :)

    Do you get a slight input lag in BC2? Like under 500ms, but still more than other games? I do.

  • I can tell the center monitor is 120 Hz, and the side monitors are 60 Hz.

  • What is your Pc specs? what processor and ram? Graphic card!?

  • @AeroFix94 core i7 920 running at 4.2 GHZ , Ati 5870 graphics card and 6 gigs of DDR3-1600 crucial tracer ram

  • hey, what drivers are you using ??

    i'm using 10.5 and it crashes randomly

    Gigbyte 5870 (ultra durable)

    Windows 7 U 64Bit

    Intel Core i7 860

    4gb G.skill RAM

    600Watt Cooler master psu

    thx !

    my temps on idle 34c and on full load 72c

  • @xdragoon69 10.4 cats

  • Honeslty the bezel are not a ptoblem. Especialy since ati added the bezel correction. Your mind automatically erases the bezels. This technology is legit. I use it. I just made my 1st Modern Warfare 2 knife throwing montage.

    Check it out ony page to see what i'm talking about

  • I've always wanted to do something like this but I can't stand the bevels. 1920x1200 is enough realestate for gaming for me right now

  • @Bleckminister keep telling yourself that... its way better ... once you try it you will never go back to 1 monitor every again

  • nice, how does it works?

  • nice rig

  • cool pc:P

  • I think i popped a boner when you showed me your computer!!!!

  • hey dude you have headset wireless? please say me wich headset you have..thnx nice vid ill subscribe

  • @334daniell In that video I have some Gamecom 777 headphones

  • shoot something u fag

  • too much eyecandy, the only times i use my eyefinity is to show it off when im with friends ... totally has no benefits in terms of competitive play ... just like the 3d thing from nvidia

  • @Krisspychiken Nice opinion .... It does have some advantages in competitive gameplay. You must not know what your doing !

  • butter

  • a true gamer is a 40 year old virgin who lives in their moms basement...

  • @BOWENSblog

    so you or what?

  • how much of an improvement did you get with that overclock

  • @crimson177 about 10 %

  • terrific Game! Its going to become a classic. i manage 2 test games months b4 anybody else because im a member of 'betaTestGamers' - You shud check them out all u do is write a short 10 minute review of the game u got from them

  • @asdffdsa1234 FOV CAN be adjusted very easily to fix the issue. Google a bit. I've done it very easily with SoftTH and it's as simply as edited the text document.

  • Comment removed

  • @asdffdsa1234

    You don't get this field of view on a TV. A TV runs the same resolution as either one of these monitors yet stretches it to fit the increased size. There's no way it'll look as good on a TV. You get one third the resolution, one third the field of view and a lot more jaggies.

  • You need to adjust the FOV to make it look at lot better and less distorted. i run a Matrox Triplehead 3 screen setup with BFBC2

  • There is currently only couple working cracks for multiplayer Bad Company 2 and one of them is at BF2Secrets[dot]tk

  • @asdffdsa1234

    if it's stretched you did it wrong :( when properly configured and proper positioning there is no stretch at all.

    and who still uses VGA? a displayport to DVI adapter is only 15$

  • Oh how the misinformed love to throw out comments. You need an ACTIVE DP to DVI adapter, which are around $100.

  • @perilX

    100$ if you are a sucker and buy from places like dell or apple... most of us these days know how to use google and buy direct imports hot off the boat from the factory in china.. same product different label

  • cool but ...

  • looks very nice but i would never be able to play like that.

  • i love battlefield for xbox, and im not a pc gamer, but thats a nasty setup you got there.

  • You must not be a true gamer then. Any true gamer would appreciate this.

  • @Elmnator1 with a vest that has food stains

  • wish the ps3 could do this

  • thats badass, I have a 24 inch monitor and 2 other 19 inch lcd's, would I be able to use the two smaller ones in conjunction with the bigger one as long as I lowered to the native resolution of the 19 inch monitors? Because I'm thinking about getting a 5770

  • @psycold get a 5870 U will be much happier

  • can't afford it! :/

  • cheat!! :P

  • @Thearsenalkid  smart!

  • :P YEEESSS!

  • my graphics cant even play as high as the middle screen.. i want it

  • i know thats probibly meant to be really sad... but that 3 screen set up is the coolest thing ive ever seen!

  • would be an interesting setting if you wouldn't have big borders on your monitors (or better no borders at all lol) but like this it feels so unreal.

    I personnaly don't like it much.

    PS: your bling bling case looks horrible... but I guess I'm just too old for this kiddie stuff ;)

  • @MissDjax Actually I'm a big kid I guess then at 34 :-)

  • I love its multiplayer ablities and survival, team work lesson it teachs. I got this for ##free## from downloadbbc2[dot]com

  • Very impressive, what are you ingame graphics settings and res?

  • the 3 monitors were 510 and the vid card was 440 so right there is 1000. and between the ram , motherboard, cpu , power supply , case , liquid cooling i got about another 2000. for everything im at around 3500 including all the cables everything to put it together

  • amazing, the game play is amazing! the beta copy of splinter cell conviction is perfect! i cant put it down lol i got my pre release copy from BetaTestGamers 2 thumbs up!

  • i guess if ur bad you need 3 monitors

  • @anonEmis yea... that must be it

  • why else would you need 3 montors for FoV??

    l2lookaround kthx

  • @anonEmis Eyefinity DOES give him an advantage on a LESS SKILLED player....I played Unreal Tournament for 10+ years,I don't need a larger FOV to kill you,my aim is VERY GOOD from practicing & playing thousands 1v1 instagib games against awesome players ;)

  • Comment removed

  • wow, defo got to be 1 of the best games ive played, any1 have a pre-release copy of bad company 2 - besides me? :D Beta discs are available 4 free from BetaTestGamers - google em! hehe :P

  • Google ati eyefinity and ull find ur answer... nvidias 3 monitor solution u need 2 cards ... ati u only need 1

  • yes one 5870 and a core i7 920 overclocked to 4.0ghz

  • watching this make my eyes hurts i dont know how you do it. and you up close..

  • LOL SPARKLING LIGHTS? WTF?

  • I have 2 monitors. How did you do this? Does the game itself have this option or did you have to run it off something else?

  • @mdickson92

    google "eyefinity" - it's ATI technology and you need one of their graphics cards.

    You also need 3 monitors minimum, and one MUST use a display port (or active display port adapter).

  • i think i just jizzed my self

  • Which Acer Monitors are you using? Don't you need one with displayport? Thanks in advance, nice vid!

  • @YouReallyDontHaveTo

    You can also use a ACTIVE display port adapter and it will work.

  • what a beautiful thing...

  • holy shit 3 monitors! and electric bills!

  • ZOMG IM SO JEALOS RIGHT NOW

  • Im Married dumbass !!!

  • @Elmnator1

    You are not

  • Hey, what graphic carda are you using?

    I got 5970, and got a bluescreen when i started a battle in bf bc2 :(

    Also, what driver version are you using? I'm using the 10.2 :(

  • I got a 5870 and im using the 9.12's... heard there are problems with the 10.2's

  • @Elmnator1 Got it to work now.. Just DX11 that doesnt work to good yet.

  • need to fix the colors looks a bit uglx left screet to grey and stuff like the rightxD only the mid looks normal :D

  • @Hunt3r2k Yeah I need to tweek them a little bit but im partially color blind so I dont notice it too much ... But I can see it ... the left monitor looks like a red tint is because of the angle of the camera

  • yea sry u right just get it now ^^ in beginning i can see its not that bad :D but nice vid :)

  • Dont like how your "moniters" give a fish lens look to it!

  • I wish My TV did that! The only thing I don't like about this is the Moniter Spacing.. (The lines in between)

  • ville saker

  • Am I the only one to see a delay with the left monitor ?

    It seems the frames appears just a tiny fraction of seconds later, compared to the center screen...

  • Damn dude...You rich??

  • @SeymoarYaTutz Nope... Lower Middle Class I would say

  • wow guys, the game play is amazing! any1 else testing it? :o) U can get your own pre release beta copy of the game @ BetaTestGamers must play more lol

  • omg now i stop 2 play and go to shop!

  • taki troszkę efekt rybiego oka :/ niezbyt naturalnie to wygląda i jeszcze trzeba mieć kompa potwora i trzy identyczne monitory (jeden widać coś ciemniej świeci :( i te ramki monitorów ^^ ) wolę więcej fps i jeden konkret monitor , albo podłączony komp pod TV Taki zestaw jak na filmikunie kalkuluje się ^^

  • Looks great but ... i thik that for now its to expensive for a "normal" gamer/user .

  • @garbageacc3 have you seen that video of the child raging at his monitor while playing WoW? yeah, you remind me of him.

  • what GC use ? can u write u pc spec?

  • @sleyer85 Im running an ATI 5870 at 900 / 1300... Overclocked to Max settings in CCC and my Intel core i7 920 Revision DO is running at 4.07 Ghz in Turbo mode

  • You got nice setup but i dont like it how it looks

  • @danzel4711 Once you sit down and play on something like this for 20 mins you will want it... Trust me .. I didnt know if id like it either but ill never go back to a single monitor again

  • Doesnt it feel like cheating? :D

    Thanks for sharing, xpensive shit

  • WTF theres no FOV slider but theres THIS W T F

  • @xfvkemosx This is the future of gaming and EA and DICE wanted to be a part of it. Thats why they made this game to be able to work like this. If you dont like the future of gaming and dont want any future improvements the door is <---------- that way !!!

  • lawl. bamf comment

    but elmnator1, you gotta pretty sweet setup for sure

  • how many fps u have?

    and what monitors are those`?

  • @CorJonas listen to the first part of the video bro.

  • You should make an "in-eye video" cause it seems, due to the angle of the camera, that the left and right monitor have some kind of "goggle effect". Like putting your eye in a lense, with side images going bigger.

  • anyone notice a difference in color tone on the left lcd vs others?

  • @mattcheung3411 Its because the angle of the camera

  • That's what you're supposed to do. the other two just provide peripheral vision. When you actually play on a 3 monitor setup, you don't even notice the bezels, or at least I don't.

  • Only you get 3x the resoultion with this setup, for cheaper.

  • it the beta that was released not the game....

  • Seems like your monitors have way diffrent color settings.. or it might be the angle you're filming in ;) very cool though!

  • @Kaiwa1234 Yes its because of the angle

  • amazing... i want so much money so i can buy that shit too xD

  • your going to get nvidia 3d surround aswell ?

    thats the basic setup for the surround when released..

    currently using 3d nvision which is amazing :D

  • @Eqvaliser: hes using ATi...

  • /no shit.. since eyefinity is made for ATi

    /end sarcasm.. and facepalm

  • Yea thats it babe

  • I don't see the use in this mate, you have three screens, one is more than enough.

    I mean even if some enemy shows up on your left screen you'll still not see it cause you're focusing on where you're aiming,which is always the center screen.

    Waste of money.
