    Crysis 2 "shakes" in Surround

    System in sig. Using the 280 beta drivers. Warhead runs fine, Crysis 2 runs fine on a single screen. Everything else is fine in Surround. But in Surround mode, in Crysis 2 the screen shakes and becomes unfocused with slight clipping. It's all around messed up. Anyone else see this?

    No Shipping Insurance? ("Declared Value" misnomer)

    How to play Bad Company 2 in Surround without CTD

    Set everything to medium, HBAO off. That's it. For the rest of you who get kicked every 20 seconds - 20 minutes in the base game, this is the cure. God damn DICE/EA.

    Addressing the "you need 3GB vRAM" mantra for Surround

    Below you'll find a few benchmarks using Tri-SLI 580 at 3 x 1080p. I think it bears out my general conclusion: if you're OK with 2-4x MSAA and high-very high settings, there's no need to get 3 GB cards and 1.5 GB will suffice. Even in the scenarios where you hit max vRAM limit, it's not...

    Can 3DVS work with different 3D monitors? (please assist with order)

    I've got two Acer GD235s and one Acer HN27. The 27" has a built-in emitter, but the Nvidia software won't let me sync up the two smaller Acers using that method. It asks for the USB version of the emitter. Even if I had that, I assume that in turn wouldn't work on the 27". If this is par for...

    FS: Brand new MSI Lightning GTX 580 ($479 shipped)

    Brand new and unopened MSI Lightning GTX 580. Highest-clocked 580 model available. MSI is said to be the only vendor that bins its chips for overclockability among the 3 or 4 vendors who put aftermarket air cooling on a 580. MSI does warranty by serial number so warranty is entirely in hands of...

    3DVision is the real deal (sharing my experience)

    A few weeks ago, I bought an XPS 17. Since adding a 3D screen was a nominal cost given all the coupons floating around, I decided to add it, not really expecting much. I played it over the weekend and was pleasantly surprised with how great it was, even with just a mid-range mobile part. So...

    FS: LED-Lit Asus LCDs (NYC Pickup Only) + Alienware MX11 R2

    ---- Monitors In the last 3 months, I bought 3 Asus LCDs: the amazing LED-lit 27" VE278Q (best TN monitor, period) and a pair of 23.6" VE247H. I mounted these on top of my 30" for my second attempt at Eyefinity action, and loved the idea and implementation of using a larger center...

    3DVision performance experiences?

    I've sampled this tech after buying a 3D-capable Dell multimedia laptop and I'm quite impressed. Only question now for me is what GPU configuration would be best within a "reasonable" budget for desktop use. I can't find any official benchmarks so I'm looking for user experience here - hence...

    Privateer 2 - DOS Executable?

    Does anyone have the DOS executable for this game they could upload for me? I've got the "deluxe edition" - Windows 95 - and that's useless for DOS box. Obviously, no one can play the game just by having the DOS exe so it's not a piracy issue.

    MLAA+Eyefinity = crap in Dead Space 1+2?

    Anyone tried this? Horrible performance. Talking 5-10 FPS. Simply by enabling MLAA. What is the point of this mode if it performs like ass? Nice to see that AMD doesn't even have regular MSAA support for Dead Space 2, either. Don't know whether it's a Dead Space specific problem. Bad Company 2...

    Negative scaling in Wings of Prey?

    System in sig. Anyone else experience this? I get no or less than no scaling with this game, at least in Eyefinity. The weird thing is that Afterburner shows both GPUs being used heavily at correct clocks, so it's an implementation problem somewhere. In one of the early levels, Dover, at...

    Quick question - max res of mini Display Port?

    1600p or 1200p? The 69xx cards only have miniDP, and mine came with DP adapters. Don't know if that matters.

    Confirmed: mismatched Eyefinity looks better for FPS

    A couple months back, I got rid of a 25.5" x 3 Surround setup. Was not a fan of the fisheye effect and didn't see why the side monitors should be the same size as the center - and effectively larger, given the way you angle them - when the center is supposed to be the focus. Also didn't like...

    Bad Company 2 CTD with Eyefinity/Surround

    Ran a Surround setup in this game with no problems for a few months before going to a single 30" for gaming. Recently added an Eyefinity setup to this only to discover that DICE apparently introduced a bug recently that causes frequent CTDs in either Eyefinity or Surround, according to users in...

    Anyone actually using supersampling in BC2? (and get it working?)

    In latest (Jan. 26 release) leaked drivers, I try to apply "override application setting" and supersampling while playing Bad Company 2, but I am skeptical that this is really working. For one thing, the framerate is very similar between 4x and 16x, which makes no sense. For another thing, if...

    Can I add a different video card to Crossfire system to drive more monitors?

    Pretty straightforward question. With Nvidia, you can't even run 3 monitors and SLI at the same time, so I bought an EVGA GT 240 and used that to drive monitors 2 and 3. In my new setup, I understand that I can connect 4 monitors with 69XX CF. A 30" and 3x22" for Eyefinity. What I...

    Eyefinity - different monitors and sizes but same resolution?

    Will this work? And with or without bezel correction? 22" Dell + 22" HP + thinking of 24" center, as having identically sized monitors always makes the center look too small the way Eyefinity/Surround work. All 1080p. If I lose bezel correction, what is the cause? Different monitor size...
