Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hi guys hope someone can help me with this cause its seriously doing my nut. I'm running a 27" imac 2011 model with a 512mb 6770 on Windows 7 via Bootcamp. Its not a perfect gaming machine by any stretch of the imagination but I have 2 23" cinema displays with a native 1920x1200 hooked up via mini-displayport to dvi from the main 2560x1440 imac display. BTW I know I'm pushing my luck with this card but for something like Dirt 2 or 3 I should be able to make a go of it and it would be a shame not to use all this kit.

I'm desperately trying to get Eyefinity to work for me. I have managed to get Eyefinity to work in some fashion on BF3 (disastrous frame rates but I'll work on settings). 1st problem is the left and right displays are stretched beyond usefulness. I usually play BF3 on high settings with x2 AA on the main display at around 1280x720 and it flies along. When I'm in BF3 with Eyefinity I don't seem to be able to lower the res to the triple screen equivalent of 3840x720. Any ideas.

Also my 2 23" cinema displays are on articulated arms mounted to a surface below the main desk on which the imac sits, They neither have the stretch to be flush left & right with the imac (about 6cm left and right but no big issue for me) but they are also slightly lower than the main imac display by about 6cm. I have no way to raise them. Is there a way I can get Eyefinity to compensate for the lower displays. Is there a way I can attach a pic of the layout to make things a little clearer? Thanks in advance for any help.
