So I've picked up a new PC (huzzah!) and am now in the process of exploring its features.
One of those exciting features is ATI's Eyefinity which allows me to use my three screens at the same time. While I'm waiting for the adapter to arrive, I'm wondering how well it would work on my setup:
ATI 5850HD
MONITOR 1: 22in, 16:10, 1680x1050
MONITOR 2: 19in, 4:3, 1280x1024
MONITOR 3: 19in, 4:3, 1280x1024
Monitor 2 and 3 are the same so I have the 22in in the middle, and two 19in on the sides.
My questions is: if I run Eyefinity in a supported game (WoW for example), would it work on my differently-sized screens properly?
[EDIT] Someone already asked this and I found my answer - can't find a way to delete the post, so see below in case you stumble onto this thread via search:

The answer is: yes, sorta. The middle screen will work but it will stretch the middle monitor's image to 1280x1024 - fun. There are hacks for some games, but not all - http://www.widescreenfixer.org/
