From day 1, [H]ard|OCP has been a huge fan of ATI’s Eyefinity technology. Eyefinity allows you to play a PC game across three monitors. Instead of seeing a gaming world in 1920×1200 (2+ million pixels) or even 2560×1600 (4+ million pixels), Eyefinity allows you to see a gaming world in 5760×1200 and 3600×1920 (6.9 million pixels). They have posted an article comparing Eyefinity using different ATI cards.
ATI’s Eyefinity breathes new life into forgotten games. And it is responsible for delivering incredible experiences in new games too! Around HardOCP, Eyefinity has been responsible for a few of us falling back in love with PC gaming. There has been a lot less work done around HardOCP in the last two months because of Eyefinity. It goes without saying that with older games you aren’t guaranteed that you’ll be able to select the Eyefinity resolutions in the menu; some may require a bit of hacking to get them to work; but when they do though, wow, it is a whole new experience.
The bottom line is, as always, buy the most expensive card to get the highest framerates. Personally, I am waiting for the ATI card with 6 DisplayPorts on them.
