Anyone doing Eyefinity???

[Rydin]

the title says it all?

Anyone using Eyefinity 3?
Have you tried the resolution 5760x1080? (Three 1920x1080 monitors)
Have you tried the resolution 7680x1600? (Three 2560x1600 monitors)

Anyone using Eyefinity 6?
Have you tried the resolution 5760x2160? (Six 1920x1080 monitors)
Have you tried the resolution 7680x3200? (Six 2560x1600 monitors)
(7680x3200, that is sick, I can't even imagine)

If so, what GPU are you using?
Did you have to turn the settings way down?

Are you running full screen to squeeze every last frame you can out of the game?
Are you running full screen because you have a crossfire setup?

I have a 2GB 5870 now and wouldn't even try it...
I would need AT LEAST CF 5870's or 6970s, or single (but still dual GPU) 5970 or 6990
I've actually grown to love all the eye splendor of the game... People have their gripes but the MOB detail is no less than EXEMPLARY...
I constantly find myself zooming in on fights to see how beautiful Raptors, gnats or even Puks look....

If at all possible, I'd like to achieve 5760x1080 (three 1920x1080 monitors) without compromising any texture detail

This game runs like trash CF therefore the 5870 single is better then the 5970 single.

Thats why i asked if it was full screen or windowed, due to Crossfire concerns
I was under the impression full screen would benefit from crossfire

I was running Eyefinity for about a day. Ran with 3 monitors @ 5760x1080. Even with my HD6970 with the GPU load stayed at 99%. I was ok standing in one spot but couldn't walk from Uldah to Horizon without crashing. I had to turn the game graphics below standard to effectively play.

Here is a screenshot for proof.... http://static.ffxiah.com/images/ffxi...Fvzaw4FvO0.png

This is EXACTLY the type of info and response I was looking for... what were your specs?
You definitely have me deciding against Eyefinity any time soon

I was under the impression that FFXIV didn't support crossfire play?

I've not tried it myself so my word is in no way law... but I have heard a couple people say full screen (Not windowed with borderless script) would benefit from a multi-GPU setup

[Rydin]

Running
I7 950 @ 3.07 (not overclocked)
12Ghz Ram
Saphire ATI Radeon HD 6970 (overclocked @ GPU clock 925Mhz Memory clock 1425 Mhz)
Windows 7 ultimate 64bit

That hurts... if you can't Eyefinity with that.... then... /sadface
I guess you could go with a lower resolution and just keep the textures high
What about 1680x1050 (5040x1050), 1600x900 (4800x900) or even 1366x768 (4098x768)?

FFXIV core system sucks wait too ffxiv fix all the issue with GPU and the game before trying to make a setup like this. I'll be waiting 1year from ps3 release before buying a system by then they be better gpu that are cheap and can make a great set up.

Just to let you know, Window mode wont utilize more then on card therefore you have to use full screen but this game just wont run CF ATM... its trash, worse then running full screen on one card.

Using 4870x2, crossfire works pretty good but still needs some loving (and yes I have been testing it since before it worked).
