    Now I remember why I love Nvidia

    Are you kidding? ATI gives you driver only downloads which you can install and uninstall completely in device manager. All you need is ATT. Nvidia drivers though will load all sorts crap and then fails to uninstall completely. It so bad that I create a restore point before I install my...

    ATI Radeon 5870 2GB 3X2 Eyefinity Gaming Experience @ [H]

    It's might now be nowhere near the resolution, but it's only a 10% smaller viewable area than your 3 22" put together, and I don't have to look at bezels.

    ATI Radeon 5870 2GB 3X2 Eyefinity Gaming Experience @ [H]

    The whole time I'm looking at this video all I see is the FOV being cut up with bezels. I just can't see why people justify the bezels just to get a higher resolutions. Like others have said, I rather game on my 37" than have my FOV chopped up into sections.

    What cards nvidia/ati actually utilize x16 besides the gtx295

    What is means is most games don't require that much PCI-E bandwidth to make a big difference, though I'm sure there are some titles that do require that extra bandwidth. COD4 is one of those titles, but considering the avg FPS it really doesn't matter much. With DX11's tessellation we...

    Eyefinity 3x24" vs. Dell 3007wfp-hc

    Not needed. By my calculations your 3x 24inch setup is 6 inches wider in portrait mode than my 37"

    Eyefinity 3x24" vs. Dell 3007wfp-hc

    Sure adding pixels is always nice, but at the cost of splitting your FOV with bezels not for me. Also your wrong more pixels V/H doesn't mean your have a 75% wider FOV if your using the 3 16/10 displays in portrait. 3600/1920 = 1.875 2025/1080 or 1920/1024 = 1.875 2025/1920 = 1.0547 or...

    Eyefinity 3x24" vs. Dell 3007wfp-hc

    I got the same 37" screen and I have to completely agree. I just can't see what's so great about 3 displays in portrait mode if your only getting a whole 5.47% more FOV at the cost of having bezels running down the display. I can create the same FOV effect by just making a 1920x1024...

    Ghetto fabulous HD4870 cooling!

    Mine idles around 44c @ 12% fan speed with the stock ref fan. http://img18.imageshack.us/img18/5227/idle4870.jpg Also I'm not sure putting a fan on top of the original HS is going to help much, as part of HS is blocking air flow on top...
