5 mointor came in today
i geus i have to wait untill my grafics crad arrives
but im going to order it after the new year commes
i dont wonna be cutt up in that crissmas crave

do i get any bragging right at this forum
or is just to getto

i do usually game on just the 40 inch
but since i do have them i might just try gameming on them
when i feel borred
i wonder if it would realy work good enofg to make me keep that composition
but i thing i would prfer something more random then just placing them next to eatch other
how do you get mutple angles in a game anyway

i do think i would run in to some problems
like for instance in winds configuration you have to place them next to eath other in order to make the mouse jump
and the number off pixels is the size of your screen witch is not close to what is really the case at al
and i just fogert about trying i full circle even know tha would be extreemly funny

or mabey i should just use them a catapult ammunition
any way guys tell me what you think

I'm a little confused as to what you were trying to do. To do multi-monitor gaming, all of your monitors need to be hooked up to the GPU from one manufacturer. Either you do on a single card, or a CrossFire (AMD) or SLI (NVIDIA) setup.

You cannot game on both AMD and NVIDIA cards at the same time.

Starting with Windows 7 you can run both AMD and NVIDIA drivers at the same time. People do this to run PhysX (NVIDIA) and Eyefinity (AMD). Or, simply run multiple single monitors at the same time. But you can't link monitors across GPUs from different companies, or even multiple GPUs not properly set up in CrossFire or SLI.

What setup were you trying to do? How many monitors were you trying to set up. It sounds like eight. But the max on NVIDIA is five, and the max on AMD is six.
