I've been lurking since I bought my first 22" years back :D

I recently setup up Eyefinity with the great assistance of the passive DP>>VGA thread.

Just thought I'd high five everyone as its a very helpful website :D

Btw, I've been frapsing some short clips of various games, they're up on Youtube at 1080p so they nearly maximise on a surround screen setup and give a good indication of FOV and HUD stretch etc.

Should I link them to the detailed report of the particular game? They'd make a nice reference and I'd like to contribute to the site in some way.

Edit: Here's an example, Oblivion...

:welcome :D
Nice to see new users whom wish to contribute :)
I would recommend you, as it makes most sence, to as you say, add a post in the end of the detailed report for said game, the detailed reports are genrally the first port of call to check when wishing to see what games look like. :)

Hi Gimpylung, welcome to the forums.

Please do not post the videos in the Detailed Reports as these threads should only be used to discuss matters affecting grading.
In future, post in the Surround and EyeFinity Media section.

I have already placed the videos you have currently posted into one thread for you to use, you can continue to use this if you wish.

Makes a mental note.
Sorry EZ, my bad for suggesting/agreeing, thought it made sense to, but I guess a dedicated thread works too :)
