I have three ASUS 23" monitors, hooked up in an Eyefinity setup on an XFX Double D HD 7870.
Can/have you connected two monitors to the two DVI ports and the third one to the HDMI port?

Unfortunately, the situations is not so good in crossfire: Tearing is back. So crossfire + eyefinity is improved but still not what we expect. Still the same as years ago. It's a bit sad. Nvidia's new models are a bit more suitable for beginning triple screeners at the moment I believe. Their model... |

I voted for the 100% first, but after viewing the images and learning that on smaller display's (such as 1280 x 720, will be used a lot in the future for phones etc) it will scale down accordingly, I believe the max-width option is better. Scaling isn't a real issue since text is vector-based. |

Eehm, sorry if someone already asked this, but if anyone with a box copy of Diablo 3 has one or two keys that he/she doesn't use, would you mind sending me those? I still haven't decided wether I should buy the game or not.
Your key is much appreciated!

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. I didn't say "reference", I said "referenced". Specifically, I have this HD7970-DC2-3GD5 card. Excuse me, I didn't catch that. Well, if you have tearing, then it must be either; 1. Plugged in the monitors wrong; 2. Somehow drivers are wrong; 3. A defect card (probably... |

I upgraded to a 3 monitor setup this week, and bought the referenced Asus 7970 so I could avoid tearing. I've got all three monitors attached using displayport adapters, and I'm seeing constant tearing on my middle monitor in eyefinity. Always in the same place, about a quarter of the way up from t... |

Hm, quite odd indeed. Exquisite you found the problem though. What drivers did you use in the end, if I may ask?

Well, since you've fiddled a lot with it you might want to try and just use a clean install with every piece of hardware connected. Then use the R-drivers I recommended. Fiddling with drivers and such always leaves a trace. I suggest you do it if you have faith it will work.

You might want to try these drivers: http://www.download3k.com/Install-AMD-Catalyst-Driver-for-AMD-Radeon-HD-7900.html
The 12.x are so far quite buggy with 7970's and x64 W7's

So, I've changed a few things in the original post and the title. The MSI R7970 Lightning has globally hit the market so I thought, why not make this a thread for that card as well. I believe quite a few people want the MSI over the Asus because of Mini-Displayports. Anyway, discuss whatever you lik... |

Hello fellow WSGF'ers, okay, I'm not sure how to put this but I am probably going to sell my third monitor and trade in my 7970 for as 7950/7870. This means no more Eyefinity for me. The reason behind this is quite simple. I've got a new study coming up, which is sort of my life goal. I really want ... |

However the reason myself (and most people on this forum) would buy this card is for the apparently tearing free eyefinity- with 3 monitors in extended desktop, all appears fine, however when running 5760x1080 or any amount of bezel correction I am seeing consistent tearing on one screen with Vsync... |
