what mount are you using? i am thinking of going with the 3008wfp and 2x20's.
I hope you don't plan to run Eyefinity ? Because that setup is not allowed, all displays must either be Portrait or Landscape, can't mix and match

TN panels at 1920x1200 are rare... Ones (TN, 1200p) with DP port even rarer (or not available yet).. If you want to by-pass getting an active DP to DVI converter, get at least one monitor with DP input.I currently have a 24inch 1900x1200 monitor (LG L246W). I'm interested in getting 2 more same size and res monitors to use for a 3x1 Eyeinfinity setup. My question is: will TN panel monitors be good enough to use as the side monitors, or will i need to buy more expensive monitors?
Thanks.
different pixel pitch...Besides all have to be the same res. for Eyefinity...a central 24 inch monitor with 1920x1200 resolution, and two 20 inch 1600x1200 (4:3) on the sides.
A monitor without frame around the screen would be indeed nice for an Eyefinity configuration...

If you have some serious money, you could just go for a Sony 4k projector. Might not be very cheap, but it would have built in Blu-ray scaling.3x 1920x1080 projectors turned on their sides. 3240x1920 for 27:16 which very close to 16:10, only a tiny bit wider. (16.875:10 to be exact)
Provided you could get the projectors calibrated to be identical to one another color, brightness, and gamma wise, and you managed to get all three images perfectly lined up on the screen, you would have a very high resolution with no lines. It would be a pain it the ass to set up I'm guessing. Lower end 1920x1080 HT projectors can run over $1K easily. So it would not be cheap.
Does anyone know of an up scaling Bluray player?
That is perfection. They need to make a 24" size and all set
Also, is there some way to indicate to Windows that I wish for the primary monitor to be the NEC and when not in-game, manage the two auxiliary monitors as two separate workspaces ( and not one giant span)?

I saw in another thread that you have to have a USB type powered DVI to DP adapter which runs about $100. However is there a cheap adapter for HDMI to DP to work with Eyefinity?
I've been looking at a lot of different setups with eyefinity and while everyone raves about portrait monitor setups, I don't think you are getting that much more. Take for example 3 x 30 inch screens in portrait mode a 52 inch lcd offers more screen width and height then 3 x 30 inchers. Now while the pixel count if far lower and the screen is not curved it should still have the same immersion factor. With that in mind I rather have the monitors in landscape mode.
LOL
Dude I have been messing around with my Eyefinity setup since September going back and forth from Landscape and Portrait on my 3 24"...and I am back to Portrait for good. It just blows away Landscape for immersion factor, hands down, the Landscape is way too wide and skinny looking, where as Portrait is a wall from floor to ceiling of pure LCD.
3 - 30" in Portrait would be a geeks wet dream, with the 2 sides angled towards you, that would be gaming heaven, and not even in the same ball park as one single 52" TV A monitor that large at 52" with the low res of 1920x1080 would blow, the pixels would be gigantic with fuzzy quality compared to 3 - 30" of 4800x2560res
Two Questions....
#1 If I didn't want to do Eyefinity and only wanted to drive 3 monitors with one card (2 as extended desktops) do i still need a monitor with a displayport input?
#2 What is the best/simpliest output port to adapt to a DVI input that will not be problematic?
Video Card HDMI -- > DVI-D on Monitor?
OR
Video Card DISPLAYPORT --> DVI-D on Monitor?
So i need to use DP, and 2 DVI ports to hook up a 30" and 2 20" monitors correct?
For this....
Not with Eyefinity This picture is NOT workable with the ATI 5800 series at all. All monitors must be the same resolution, and all monitors must be the same orientation either all Landscape or all Portrait no mix and match

Mix and match is no doable for even a standard extended desktop on the 5800 series?
Really!?!?!?! Holy cow...i thought that was just for Eyefinity
If that is the case, it makes me very very sad.
SO you cant even disable eyefinity to run 20-30-20...i guess i am stuck running two video cards then.
without eyefinity u should be able to run any 3 monitor setup?
then its 3 seperate monitors so that should work.
I use 2 monitors, and can flip one to portrait and using the other as landscape, without eyefinity.
