    Hey everyone, looking to get some advice on a setup i want.

    Currently i have a pc connected to a 23" acer hd monitor.

    I want to add a second 23" and then next month add another 23" monitor so i can use eyefinity.

    I have a 5770 gpu. the outputs on the card are

    dvi output
    displayport output
    hdmi output

    now, i know i can connect 3 monitor's to this and get my eyefinity working.

    BUT....

    i also have a 32" tv mounted on the wall which i also want to connect up so i can watch movies off it :D

    so, any suggestions on what i can do?

    oh, i also have a 8800gt in the pc thats setup for physx.

    you should be able to do it, just have the tv running off the 8800GT and leave the 5770 to run the eyefinity group.

    The eyefinity group is setup in CCC, but set up that group + the tv in the Control Panel/Display/Screen Resolution.

    Id test for you as i have 2 screens running off my 5850 and my 3rd screen running off an 8800gt but eyefinity groups dont work in Windows 7 RC.

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means
