Any of you using 3x1+1 extended notice that the HUD is moved to the outer screens? I disable the extended screen and reboot relaunch game and the HUD is back on the center screen. I tested BF3,BF4 and Mass Effect 3. Mass Effect 3 FOV was incorrect when running 3x1+1. I think there is a issue with AMD drivers and how they detect your resolution when running 3x1+1.


Got this aswell when I added the fourth screen, very weird.

Yay, I found a fix that worked for me at least.
Someone had put together a custom Sli profile for nvidia with the nvidiainspector tool, so i just imported his profile and now all three cards are working again. :thumbup:

You can find his post about it here, he even did a guide:

there is more than just an "issue" with AMD Drivers and 3+1 Setup!
Sometimes the Setup sets additional Monitor as 1 and all games want to Maximize on Monitor 1 -> crash
if you have a 1024x768 Monitor 90° turned, BF4 won't maximize the Eyefinity over your other 3 Screens! If you have a 1680x1080 normal, then it's fine.
and a lot more problems i've encountered so far!

So now i've mostly disconected my 4th Monitor.

Using NV surround.

Has anyone encountered the flickering smoke bug in this game? It's apparently SLI related, and unbelievably annoying. Has anyone found a sure way to get rid of it?

I have played 3x1 +1 with no problems on AMD cards. All are 1280x1024. It must be some weird resolution bug with the drivers and game.

I tried out that Battle screen window on my +1 but promptly shut it down because it was a resource hog and a half. Nearly halved my frame rate and made the game choppy.

What drivers are the nvidia users on with this game?

I found a way to remove the flicker. It's the worst fix I've ever witnessed in my life, and EA needs to fix their game, but it works. Shouldn't have to do this to make it work...

Start up the 32bit executable of the game. Quit. Then start up the 64bit version. No more flicker (until you stop playing, in which case you have to redo it).

And although it removes the flicker, and my FPS is normally 60 FPS solid, it sometimes stutters quite tremendously when turning the camera with the mouse. The game is clearly having problems properly syncing both video cards correctly.
