Excuse me but i've got TWO graphic cards, 2* HD5830 (today, crossfire enable).

My idea :

1 screen on DP
1 on the 2nd DP
3 on DVI

Have a nice sunday,

Eyefinity groups can only be created on the same card. I have 12 mini display ports across 2 cards, but the largest monitor group I can have in Eyefinity is 6 monitors.

You might have done more research before you had your idea. The ports in an Eyefinity grouping must all be from the same video card. Maybe there is some language barrier where English isn't your first language. I already replied to you any configuration of 5830 will not give you Eyefinity 5x1P.

Sorry for not actually testing this myself, but can anyone tell me if the newer drivers support 5x1 portrait on an e6 other than this hotfix. It was such a pain in the butt to get this thing set up. What drivers are you all using currently for 5x1?

5x1 has worked for me with the 6990 driver, and the release driver for the HD 6790. I think these would be 11.2 and 11.3. Since I use the pre-release drivers for my testing, it's hard to keep track. I can say the current driver still supports 5x1-P.

Hi,

I need a little help

I use 5 x 24 "AOC TFT with 1920 x 1080 in portrait mode but I can not activate as a group
in the CCC are recognized all as 1,2,3,4,5, but there is no 5x1 portrait mode in the group settings
3x1 portrait mode works, all other modes only go up to 4 monitors

Why does the CCC monitors one for one, but not in the group
can someone help me please

System info:
Motherboard Asus Rampage
Core i7 720 processor
9 GB Ram
ATI 5870 Eyefinity6
5 x 24 inch AOC Monitor 1920 x 1080
Connections:
3 x single link active mini DP to DVI Apapter
2 x normal mini DP to DVI Adapter
video card drivers: 11.1

video card drivers: 11.1

Uninstall 11.1, you can go as far as do a driversweep if you want.
Then install 10.12a <- (Note the little a on the end. It's a Hot Fix)

Then you can install the 11.3 / 4 CCC and only the CCC, not the display driver. Do a custom install. You should be able to get 5x1 detection working.

i will follow your advice.

Today, i find the reference of the graphic card compatible (must have 6 mini-DP). The display must have dvi and dvi-mini-DP must be used to connect.

Now, i'm looking for displays.

Thanks for your patience.

Just saw this picture and thought it was a good 2D representation of 5x1.

Hello i'm new here :)

Here are my experiences with the 5x1P mode:

Hardware:

Sapphire 6950 Flex
5x Samsung 2443bw DVI
2600k @ 5ghz

Monitors connected with : 2xDVI , 1x HDMI->DVI (FLEX) and 2x Active DP convertor

Drivers 10.12a (newer won't detect 5x1)
Upgrade tot 11.5a (not the Display drivers, custom install)

5x1P in Windows extended is perfect.
Eyefinity with 3x1L is perfect

5x1P is horrible ... tearing all over the middle monitors. Switchting the outputs doens't help. I get a vertical line that flows over the screens :(

I wouldn't recommend this setup..
