Very cool. There are a few games in the works (BF Bad Company 2 for sure) that allow you to adjust higher FOV (field of view) levels specifically for eyefinity type setups. You are correct that most old games do not have the FOV support for multiple monitor setups.
-
so is this really just 5000 x 1080 or actually 1900 stretch out to 5000 x 1080.

Ah thats good news!
I have been using Bartender. Which is great for everything else but. Which buff addon do you recommend?
-
Once you configure your eyefinity, you can switch back and forth to various profiles that can turn off the side monitors, mirror the 3 monitors, or operate as though you had 3 separate graphics cards running a monitor each.

Now after all that, I have to say I still love my eye-finity. and run it on a single monitor in that case. For games like World of Warcraft, where for the most part the periphery is unimportant, (except as i noted earlier the character bars on the upper right and left corners)
I can't use it for COD. Simply because I can't see and react to peripheral vision as i do normally. So I change it
Hey do you need a 2 gb 5870 or even a better 5970 to run wow above 60 fps with eyefinity? Or will the 1gb one be good enough? I dont play anything else..

@ChimeraProd
Sorry I missed your question. 1gb 5870 is adequate.

Another reason I cannot play COD in eyefinity, is that I actually feel quite sick to my stomach after about 30 minutes of play. Immersive? Yes to the point where your brain induces motion sickness.

Yes, the resolution is 5760 1080.
It has huge cool factor, however...
1) Playing COD, or first person shooters where we encounter mobs on the periphery of a normal monitor, puts them almost 2 feet further out of your main line of vision.
So it actually puts you at a huge disadvantage.
I have to set the game up so it runs on only one monitor.
2) Eyefinity does interesting things with periphery vision. Mimicking the human eye there is a distortion of the periphyra.

I have installed pit bull and it has helped alot.
The learning curve for the mod, is pretty steep, but you are right. It does help move more pertinent information closer to my field of view.
However, I am still finding some information hard to track.
