| Post subject: | Older (racing) game support |
Hi guys, I'm thinking of making the switch to Eyefinity (I'm a TH2GO owner) but I play a lot of older racing games and can't seem to find anything about Eyefinity compatibility with them. I read a post somewhere that stated that the number of games Eyefinity supported was restricted - is that true, or is it as compatibile with older games as the TH2GO is? I play (amongst others) Richard Burns Rally Grand Prix Legends GT Legends rFactor iRacing GTR series Thanks for any help! |

The only one I can't confirm is Grand prix legends but I am pretty sure it's working fine. All the others are working fine with eyefinity, I have tested them all... Bleco |

If the games work with TH2go, then I would think they would also work with Eyefinity. The only one I've really had some serious problems with is GTL - the copy protection system that installs with the DVD takes Windows 7 to it's knees, and required a complete reinstall (not an Eyefinity problem). RBR requires Camhack and some fiddling, and some of the replay cut-scenes still don't show in their proper aspect ratio, but ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBD9Pan-Vc4 |

pretty much all the games that can run in matrox triplehead will run in eyefinity the only problem is that Eyefinity REQUIRES windows Vista or Windows 7 to work. not a "eyefinity problem" but some older games just don't run on Vista/Win7 I had this problem with several games. but I would say a good 95% of games run in Win7 fine. |

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the info. I reckon I'll be grabbing a 5870 within the next few weeks - can't wait! If the games work with TH2go, then I would think they would also work with Eyefinity. The only one I've really had some serious problems with is GTL - the copy protection system that installs with the DVD takes Windows 7 to it's knees, and required a complete reinstall (not an Eyefinity problem). RBR requires Camhack and some fiddling, and some of the replay cut-scenes still don't show in their proper aspect ratio, but ... Mate, you are absolutely flying there! Nice driving! |
