Thats the Dirt 2 intro Video your playing there - its not being rendered by a 5770.. There is no chance that a 5770 can handle that framerate in eyefinity mode - not a chance
Hey, Ive got the 5770 with to DVI outs and then display port to HDMI and when I go on the display settings in control panel and click extend to monitor 3 it says unable to apply settings please help I spent alot of money trying to get 3 monitors to work on my 5770, 1 = 22" 2x 17"
@Armornone ... no! it doesnt work with Hdmi port s the 3rd Port! As i know you can use the HDMI port only for the Desktop Mode. If you like playing games in eyefinity you have to use the displyPort! That why i have Byued a New TFT with displyport and DVI --) this one Hewlett-Packard LA2205wg
Your graphics card is too underpowered for this setup. I had a 5850 working with 3 1600x900 LG LED e2050t monitors. Dirt2 was okay but stuff like metro 2033, killed the card straight away with 4800x900 (or 5012x900 bezel comp). A loaned 5850 from my cousin for crossfire helped a bit, but xfire has it's own issues - basically eyefinity resolutions need lots of power, that's the bottom line.
wow the monitors lineup pretty well! i was thinking of doing a 24" at the center with 2x23" at the sides, what settings did you use? particularly the resolutions, the u2311's are 1920x1080 native while the 2407 is 1920x1200 can you set different res between them? thanks in advance!
@openjars You can, but then it still stretches the 24" to fill the screen - not every 24" supports aspect scaling. My current 24" screen (not the one in the video), the Dell U2410 supports that, maybe I'll make another video with it soon :P
@mike82y Apparently. Too bad I don't have that many games that support it as well as DiRT 2 does. I did, however, have to drop the resolution down a notch and enable 2xAA instead to make it comfortably playable :)
No it doesn't, with the camera used and distance away from the screens, nobody can tell wether its high detail or low details, my bets are on low detail but dont bother arguing it because we can't see.
Why dont you try actually playing the the game, there is a lot more for the gpu to process whilst in game rather than this movie in cinematic view.
@ProTechnicals Yes, there's no way to prove which settings I played it on unless I adjust the settings on-camera and play on with them.
I can tell you though, that it runs surprisingly well. The video was actually recorded on everything maxed out, believe it or not (no AA though), and it runs at around 25FPS. Of course you can hardly beat any records with that kind of performance, but it's comfortable enough to have fun while just driving around like that :)
@ProTechnicals you just dont know how powerful the 5770 is, he can run the game maxed out with no aa and its playable, the only thing is it lags like crazy on the racing menu, but during racing you get about a good 17 to 25 fps, and it plays pretty smooth at that low of a frame rate, also thats at stock speeds we dont know if he overclocked it or not
Thanks for share Good information.

there are also cheap active DP-DVI-SL (Single Link) which only cost about 20-30 Euros.

@ChronoDog - Not true. You can get a DP to VGA dongle assuming your monitor has a VGA input.

not sure why but ATi runs better on eyefinity not sure why

@67CopperHead Because Eyefinity was created by ATI. :P

If the 5770 has 2 monitor outputs, how did you connect 3 screens? Is there some kind of splitter your using?
Armornone 1 year ago
@Armornone It has four. 2xDVI, DisplayPort and HDMI.

@ChronoDog So you can use the HDMI as the 3rd monitor connection?

a 5770 is a bit low to run full eyefinity expecially at that Res hes running. Id say a 5850 & higher would be more suited.

5770 is enough to run eyefinity?

no a chance in hell if you want to run high settings at comfortable fps.
