Very nice review. WSGF and [H] are pretty much where it's at for multimonitor benches.
Interesting though that the 6990 was slightly faster than the 6970 xfire on here, but it's the opposite on [H]. |

| Wow... Before people spaz out about the list: 1) It was voted on. So no, the author didn't make anything biased or throw anything in for whatever reason. 2) Just because it doesn't reflect your own personal top 50 list doesn't make it 'false' or anything. It's just a top 50 list by vote. Don't overa... |

Hmm, so it was voted on.
I just did a quick scan for Dante. He made the list, I'm happy.
EDIT: Just saw Naruto. I puked a little bit. |

| AMD may be a bit further along the road in terms of features for Eyefinity, but for me presonally, the lack of Crossfire support in windowed gaming (I run WoW in windowed mode for multiboxing) was a deal-breaker. I'm not saying that this makes Nvidia the better vendor, only that it makes them the b... |

| :doh 16x9 is the largest aspect ratio the game supports. 48x9 isn't supported for a 3x1 setup (which a lot of us have). 3x3 would preserve the 16x9 aspect ratio which would supposedly work without any modification in sc2. With 9 monitors you'd have a visible area of 5760x3240 vs 1 monitor of 1920x1... |

| Sadly the SC2 community is vapidly against the multi-monitor support. They think it's cheating. I think the only way to show them they are stupid for the way they setup the resolution lock is to post lots of 3x3 monitor matrix shots of the game showing them how dumb locking the game at 16x9 aspect ... |

| It's retarded because they are dumb enough to lock the visibility based on an aspect ratio. 3 screens of visibility is an "unfair advantage", but 9 screens... that is working as intended. 5760 x 3240 is a crazy amount of visibility. You could probably see the entire map at that res. I don't underst... |

Profiles and Hotkey swapping, in other words. Interesting, I always thought my roo... |

[quote]yes it would work.
lol. so they will ban you for a 3x1 setup... but go for a 3x3 and it's all fair.
Sigh, blizzard is retarded.
Why is that retarded? A 3x3 setup has the same aspect as a single monitor so you'd see the same amount as a single monitor as opposed to 3x1. |

| I never use vsync so that's something I really couldn't care less about. In terms of flexibility, since I have DP monitors already, ATI is more flexible since I don't need 2 cards. That said, it'd be great if 2 cards (SLI / xfire) worked as flawlessly as a single card for ALL games and not just the ... |

| It works in surround and eyefinity. The engine is certainly not source. The guys used XNA to make it. I can't even tell if the world is really 3D. The perspective is fixed so I wouldn't be surprised if everything were simply 2D sprites (think Deathspank type sprites). Another indication of this is t... |

| Strange, my roommate tested it on a single monitor (since you can't run surround without SLI on...), and SLI showed no scaling whatsoever. He has the latest drivers. |
