    Has anyone tried this out yet? I just got mine set up and its absolutely sick when it works well (Left4Dead), but most games require a lot of settings adjustments just to start up (MW2). Others don't work at all.

    Congratulations on your super awesome setup!

    Btw, why have the icons on the left monitor? I figured the middle one would be your "main" one

    I played some games on that set up when I went to one of the hardocp user experience tests that amdsetup. It was pretty cool but took a while to get used to. You have to sit a certain distance away from the monitors for it to work the best imo. The coolest I've seen however, is to have a setup with 6 monitors. That would give you a 3600 x 2160 resolution, which just blows away almost anything else out there.

    It's nice that there is finally some software that will support this, and the hardware is finally there to push it.

    I've played a couple of games on multiple monitors before. The trick is to get them into window mode then stretch them across all of the screens. The games I've tried are Civ4, EVE and City of Heroes. It was optimal in EVE, since it gives you more a view of your surroundings.

    This certainly puts an ATI card on my radar for my next gaming PC, although that's a few years off.
