Mine is still alive and Kicking...
Monster Hunter FTW!
They pretty much botched the Wii version, so we are left with the PSP ones, which are much better and more intense to play
(I wish they would do one on the PS3.... ) |

My WoW has hard-crashed with some memory management errors every time I've tried to run it in surround. :evil:
I've had the same issues. I decided to clear the WTF and Interface folders, and start anew.
Works like a charm now |

| Hello, From my experience, I moved from 2 GTX260 SLI to an ATI HD6870. The GTX260 were not enough to play correctly to WoW, and the noise they were making were just too much. Since I switched, it's way better, easier to setup, less expensive and quieter :-) You can put a bit more and go for the 6970... |

Cool! A contest.... I love contest...
New Eyefinity user here, and it blew my mind straight off when I first saw the effects it had on my gaming experiences.
I plan never to go back to single screen again! |

| Ok! Finally got my adapter last week by mail :-P Everything works like a charm! It's really something! I've had to setup a proper profile for the GC Fan on MSI Afterburner, because the temp was getting a bit crazy to my liking (above 90 c)... Now everything runs at 85 c peak, full details turned on ... |

But why.... oh why don't they include an active MiniDP->DVI adapter in their bundle??? My third screen is currently turned off, awaiting on delivery for that Sapphire ... |

| I do not know where to stand with this.... The issue is that if I get caught cheating on SCII, and get ban, this will also impact my WoW subscription, being linked to my Battle.net and all... But imho, I do not see issues with people "cheating" in single players... If by cheating we mean using the c... |

| I'd buy on features more than price/performance. Not sure how eyefinity stacks up against nVidia surround. Eyefinity is more flexible, but for 3 monitors either should work fine. One thing I'm not sure if you're aware of, the 6870 is not the successor to the 5870, they've messed with their numberin... |

| Thanks! No, currently I am using Nvidia, but I've ordered an ATI Sapphire Radeon HD6870 - 1 GB: I believe that would solve the primary issue that I have with the Nvidia SLI configuration (heat and noise) I am behind an APC for my main gaming rig: could that be the issue? Does the dual GC hog so much... |
