Does anyone here have experience getting a multiple monitor setup looking uniform? I'm not looking for exacts, but the difference can be somewhat annoying, especially in eyefinity.

That doesn't look like an active adapter. Too small, and no extra power. I'd avoid.

Actually, it would cut off a very small amount of the sides, not the top/bottom, a small portion of the sides that is not used much if at all.

My old Dell 2007fp has the same options, minus custom border color. Does the newer 2209WA really lose these functions?

Thanks for the info. So ColorHCFR looks like you make the adjustments on the OSD, it just tells you what adjustments to make? That seems multi-dsiplay compatible for sure. Cannot tell if argyll is multidisplay capable or not, even in non-eyefinity.

I'm looking for a way to calibrate my 3 monitors, and spyder3Pro seems to be the cheapest way to do that (If there is a cheaper one, please let me know, not sure I want to spend $140 on a calibrator.) However, I've heard that it is a mac only feature, is it true? Also, can separate...

Don't think it would work in crossfire, but just having the 2 in the system should work. Crossfire disables the video out ports on one card iirc.

No, the VGA cable was different, it is the one from monoprice, though others have said that it has worked for them. My res is only 1600*1200 though, so hopefully the dell will work. I ended up buying it, was $60 shipped, was on ebay, so here's hoping it works. The guy said it worked for him...

Why would that matter? 1680*1050 has lower res than 1200p and 1080p. No, higher res > lower res. 1920*1200>1920*1080>1680*1050.

No, the VGA adapter was active. The guy says he's been using the dvi adapter for months for eyefinity, so hope he's telling the truth.

I can buy a Dell adapter real cheap. Anyone use this with issues? I tried the DP->VGA, and had nothing but flickering. Will buying this solve my issues hopefully?

Anyone heard rumors about HP releasing a ZR27W with the Dell u2711 panel? Seems they've been doing a serious refresh, might that be included?

I think you mean Dell U2410? I'd say HP ZR24W, but the Dell looks great as well

Is there anything special in hardware/software needed to calibrate 2 panels on one graphics card? I have a Dell 2007 and an HP LP2065 (same panel) and I want to calibrate them to look as close as possible to each other. I'm looking at colormunki create right now, which I can get for $50 new...

The newer Dell u2311H uses the same panel. I'd go with whatever you can find the cheapest of the two with warranty.

I prefer 4:3 soley due to the fact that it is really easy to get like new IPS 20" 1600*1200 panels for $150. Cheaper if you look

That wasn't it.

Wish I could, there was a link to an interview in some thread on wide screen gaming forum. Couldn't even tell you the subject of the thread, it's been too long. Your welcome to do your own searching there if you want. The quote was something like a lot of AMD people use PLP setups themselves...

I probably need to flip back and forth, but debating this

Thanks, I'll fill it out. I have a feeling this will be fixed soon-ish, more as a side effect of their promises to fix PLP set ups. Think this is the same problem. And once I get a 3rd monitor, I'll be getting a tripple mount, so no longer a problem then. Just hoping it would stop being a...

Ok, so I got 2 20" 1600*1200 monitors, an HP LP2065, and a Dell 2007FPb. Tried playing with eyefinity (for rts, which is nice to have the extra space, and middle screen is less important) and it works great in landscape. Problem is, I want to try portrait. Unfortunately, when my HP...

3840x2400 would be awesome, and scale perfectly to 1920*1200 (close enough to 1920*1080). Would be a very nice one, but at a ridiculous price.

Looks nice to me!

I have a non-reference 5850. How would I get this to work? I assume I need to get my bios off my card and edit it somehow before flashing? How would I edit it? Or is there a bios out there for my card? I have this model, with the MSI lightning bios on it.

Well, guess we got one less bit of tech to look forward to, but it's not like there aren't a ton others that look good.

Still got flickering. Even driversweeping and installing 10.3b did not help. Ugh

Yep, uninstalled first. And unplugging-replugging doesn't fix my issue :( I'll check out those other 2 threads, thanks

10.3b and 10.5 both give the same flickering :( Any other thoughts?

I see, I'm on 10.4, so I'll go back to 10.3b. Never downloaded it, anyone know where I can find it? Is there a place that keeps old drivers? I could also try 10.5, thanks for the tips. And no CF, so all on the same card

update: Tried enabling crossfire, and it gave me a display link error or something. I'm thinking I'll be returning this, and getting dvi adapter if this can't be solved soon Googling gave me a ton of "My problem magically fixed itself, no clue how" responses, my problem isn't magically fixing...

I just got the VGA-DP adapter off monoprice. Every 30 seconds to a minute, my screen loses signal. Any way to stop it? I only am using a 1600*1200 screen, which is between 1680*1050 and 1920*1080, so I wouldn't think that's the problem. What do I need to do? Tried on 2 monitors with the...

Nice! Wonder how it'll compare to the u2410. LG panel?

It was PVA and IPS, not TN.

Ebay and 20" 1600*1200 monitors. They are ~$120 average. I bought 3 for $380 shipped. They are IPS, all rotate to portrait without having to screw/unscrew the mount. They even have built in USB hubs.

I have 3*20" 1600*1200 lcds, so nothing huge. Anyone able to recommend me a good triple mount for cheap? I had the double one from this thread, but now I need a triple. The cputopia one any good? Only really need them off the desk, and pivot. Individual hight adjustment is nice, but I bet...

I've ran a 17" as a secondary, is quite nice. Better than no secondary at least. Just don't try portrait, looks horrible, at least on mine (TN unfortunatly)

Thanks for the info, anyone else got an opinion? Side by side or somehting?

I'd go p22 and g22. That way, you get a quite nice stand, and no messing with adapters

Looking for a 20" 1600*1200 monitor, and these 2 are the same price on the bay. I would think the HP is better, buy can't be sure. Anyone?

the problem will be a mouse and keyboard. As far as I know, there is no way to have 2 mouses control 2 cursors, or whatever. Do it at different times should be no problem though.
