hey,Some games understandably dont work in eyefinity well,Company of heroes is mine--its stretched far to much.
When i start up the game the game is duplicated on all 3 screens, how do you just have the game set on 1 monitor(1920x1080) (without turning eyefinity off) Or can you not?

Well this is getting a little frustrating now lol, I was told specifically to NOT get 2 x470 (due to my MB speed) as the 1 x 5970 is far superior and runs almost 30-40 % better? i cant afford the new H6 series ati card to be honest so it is down to the options as stated,2 x 470 or 1 x 5970.
