My eyefinity resolution just does not seem to be supported in some games. Skyrim, Diablo 3 and Counter-Strike simply do not function or bug out on my setup. Counterstrike and skyrim both do not display any resolutions in the dropdown box when I attempt to adjust their resolution, and D3 just errors on startup.

I am running at 3780x1920, three portrait U24's. Do I have some weird aspect ratio?? Other games like Battlefield 3, League of Legends, Terraria have no issues whatsoever.

Help!!

Update: If I select windowed mode I am presented with some higher resolutions, but still nothing matching my real resolution. I've attached some screenshots to maybe inspire some troubleshooting tips.

Not all Games support Eyefinity!

Some Developers think that nobody uses Eyefinity, or just dislike it that much so they wont make their game working in this resolutions!


To see which games fully support Eyefinty and if there are some little trick to get the game working even if it doesn't work see the "Detailed Report" list and search for a secific game.


Greetings Haldi.

Thanks Haldi. The reason I was so confused is because this site lists Skyrim as having (questionable) eyefinity support! I figured out my problem...In the skyrim settings, I had "Ultra" selected, figuring my setup can handle it. But what you have to do is click default, then it auto-detects your resolution. The resolution dropdown remains blank but it does properly set it! Still stuck on diablo 3 however, I can manually edit the .ini and adjust the resolution, but for some reason it only works in windowed mode. In full screen mode it doesn't start.

IIRC Blizzard has a rather hostile stance towards EF/surround/non-standard display modes. I seem to remember comments in an article somewhere, though the specifics are escaping me atm.
