with all these talk of DX limits It´s not an api limit, but a hardware one. Directx10 requires 8000 max limit, so directx10 level cards can go up to 8000 whatever the api |

Excellent. Thanks for the info, Brad. As it just so happens I have the DX-SDK installed and I didn't think to check it at all. :D I'm Windows 7 but it looks the same in Vista and XP in DX Caps Viewer. What it is showing is the hardware capability, not the DirectX version capability. You have to check the 5000-series card to know what it's max is. All my screenshot shows is that nVidia GTX260 max out at 8192x8192. One would assume that since these are values taken from the hardware that it would probably be the max limits for OpenGL too. That is an assumption on my part though. |

Even a more realistic setup for people already has 3x24 would be 5x1x1920x1200 --> 9600x1200 would not be bellow 8000 dx9 max limit. That is why I suggest portrait mode for 5 24" |

That is why I suggest portrait mode for 5 24" For me 3x24 horiz = better than 5x24" portrait. |

I'd like to be able to try 5x24, but it is not going to happen for me!That is why I suggest portrait mode for 5 24" |

That is why I suggest portrait mode for 5 24" I'm sure it is for you, but the sub-topic was 5 screen exceeding the 8192 max width -- hence how to do it. :wink: |
