and behind the times.

I just now noticed the latest firmware and software for TH2Go DE.
I figured, what the heck, might as well give it a shot. I have been stuck with 4320x900 for over a year now.
Well, once the new FW and SW installed, I decided to give 5040x1050@59Hz a shot. Really not expecting it to work.
I clicked apply and screens went black. A few seconds later, they came back on and displaying perfectly in 5040x1050 :!:
This is fantastic. I am using 3 26" panels, so I am sure you can imagine the improvement I now have in image quality.
4320x900 is a little too low for panels of this size, but I had been living with all this time and had gotten used to it.
It is so nice to finally be getting closer to my native res.
I'm still on 182.50 driver, but that's fine as it works flawlessly in all my games.

Thank you Matrox for the not so new update, lol.
:cheers

Well with Nivida Surround and ATI Eyefinity out, its quite suprising that there are still some ppl running the old matrox solution.

Well the TH2Go in addition to eyefinity or surround would make for an awesome video wall.

Well it is a viable solution to users of a single nVidia graphics card, that's why :wink:
