| 600W from the wall outlet? Then, that's before the PSU efficiency. 800W PSU means, it can deliver 800W. It might be draining more from the the wall outlet. Here in Germany, electricity is quite expensive. I always recommend smaller PSUs, so that it works with optimal efficiency. (Typically at at le... |

| That's very true Spartan I remember running the fov so wide in quake 2 back in the day I could almost see behind me :) We could even argue that we have less of an advantage because we're more likely to get distracted by teammates/explosions/etc in our peripheral vision. God knows we have to deal wit... |

| Nice fair take on the unfare advantage topic. I do hate even going down this path of an unfair advantage with multi monitor setups. I personally want the best experience when I play. If devs start crippling games to try to be fair for everyone we'll be playing at a fixed low resolution so everyone h... |

| Well, crap, I wish I had seen this earlier. I just ordered an Accell MST Hub ( http://www.accellcables.com/K088B-002B.html ) which I believe is identical in hardware to the Club3D MST Hub and am planning to run it against - guess what - 3 Dell u2311h monitors with native DP connections. We'll see w... |

| That's pretty bad blacksight they do seem very inconsistent my last one was a lot worse then the new one they sent me with no change to my hardware. I'm currently running ATI Catalyst™ 13.11 Beta 6 with windows 8.1 Can you run all 3 monitors off the card without the hub? Just curious if you're havin... |

| Well this work around seems to be working: http://home.comcast.net/~denyhosts/xmas.jpg Kind of cheesy that I have to power cycle the hub any time the machine is rebooted. The Christmas tree foot pedal makes it quick though. I'm really curious to hear if it had any affect with WLD13 since he was havi... |

| Well WLD13 I'm not sure if support has told you that they think the problem may be caused by the settings on the hub never getting reset since it's always on power You may want to try putting the hub on your surge protector and powering it off when you shut down your computer or after you reboot. I ... |

| So this only happens with adapters ? active or passive adapters non the less? The problem with your idea would be that 1. WSGF does not have a MST hub. and 2. Shipping this thing around the globe would be around 10-30$ per time. so after shipping 5 times you would have the original price. Way to ex... |

| I'm still losing monitors here and there going in and out of games. No real input from support. Maybe they'll eventually figure it out but for now if you do not have display port monitors I would stay away from this product unless you can deal with losing monitors here and there. A quick switch of r... |

| They're LG 22EA63T-P they make a larger one as well. Let me just say even though they don't have a bezel they do have like a 1/4" black area around the screen it doesn't completely display to the edge but it's the closest I could find. I've tested mine with the LG monitors above and my sons Han... |

| Still the same for me It has slowed down but it's still happening from time to time. I also tried one connection with the hub and the other two with mini dvi and dvi still lost the monitor connected to the hub. also my hub only gets a little warm 92ºf not very hot at all. I don't have dp monitors to... |

| I haven't really checked if the hub gets hot. I'll see tonight. I have a good amount of room around the computer since I keep it on the outside of my desk in the open. Between the 7990 Devil 13 video card and my overclock intel 4770k it kicks of so much heat I don't want the computer anywhere near m... |

| 3 days since the last one and I lost the middle monitor when going in to Saints Row IV last night. Had to alt+F4 and start the game again since I couldn't see the menus. Not sure where to go from here. I hope WLD13 has better luck. I haven't been aggressively testing so the 3 days was just normal co... |

Crap, Turned the system back on today after breakfast and lost the middle monitor.
Rebooted and it came back and has stayed on but I was hoping that I would not see that again. |

| Day two with the new hub no problems. To bad the hub doesn't indicate which firmware it's using to distinguish a potential problem hub. That way people don't drive themselves nuts trying adapters or drivers when the problem is related to the device. So far so good though played a couple hours of gam... |

| So far so good 50 reboots and in and out of various games with no issue. Its looking good since it would drop a monitor 2 out of 10 consecutive reboots. I'll continue to aggressively test over the weekend and post the result but I think they may have solved the issue with the firmware update. Total ... |

| Wow I'm impressed they shipped it two day from the Netherlands. So we should have an answer by this weekend because it's scheduled to be delivered on Friday. Tested it again today and it's still repeatable 2 out of 10 reboots lost one monitor. It is strange that two never go out only one and not alw... |

Yeah you might as well get the ball rolling it'll take some time shipping back and fourth to the Netherlands :... |

| I guess they take them apart for the firmware because I just heard back. They want me to return the hub and they'll send me a new one with the updated firmware. Hopefully they ship one out first before I have to return this one. I guess I could run without for a bit but the screen tearing annoys me.... |
