Also make sure and check your cables, that solved the issue for me.

[quote]I played darkfall ALL DAY(12 hours) and didn't have a SINGLE incident. Looks like the cable might have been bunk after all. I'll continue my testing and report back. I have had my 5970 for 8 months or so. Was using a dvi monitor with a dp to vga adapter. Was having dropouts. After a month we...

I also just exchanged my regular DP cable for a different one and so far so good. But that's what I thought before. :P Should take a few days to get the 1 piece cable I want, but hopefully this will hold me over until it gets here.

Ok, something interesting happened a min ago. I have a dvi cable that goes from the DP monitor to my triplehead2go(from when I had my 4870). I went back behind the computer, unhooked it from the th2go and routed it through my mess of cables so I could hook it up to my other computer. Before hooking ...

Well, so far I've had the monitor go out once DIRECTLY after I moved my mouse and the monitors "turned on". It came back though shortly thereafter. I haven't had this issue while playing games though(at least so far). Before when it went out, it would never turn back on, so while it's not perfect no...

Well, i just fought with the setup for a couple hours. I started swapping around adapters, trying out different drivers(yes I cleaned w/driver cleaner) and found out some interesting things. 2 of the adapters I can't even get the center screen to display 1680x1050(eyefinity or not). 1 of those can d...

If this issue isn't resolved soon, I'm just going to sell my E6 and get a gtx480 and use my triplehead2go again.

10.6 are fine. It was the auto-switching in the monitor.

Me=fail, 5870 E6=win.

Now they want me to rma the card. :doh It doesn't matter if I get a new one or not, it's going to be the same damn problem. This is such a joke. EDIT: Looks like I'm the joke. Been working for 3 hours now. I switched out the mini-dp to dp adapter again(had already tried this before several times) + ...

[quote] EDIT: I asked them about a newer bios in the support ticket and they gave me a link to request a newer one. So it looks like I can flash it under warranty and still be covered.

Well, I just got a 5870 E6 2gb. For the first 30 mins, it was great. I was testing out games and everything seemed to work fine. Then the NATIVE DISPLAYPORT MONITOR just went to sleep and that was it. I tried different drivers along w/driver cleaner and it would work at first, but then like 10 secon...
