Interesting... so just to recap, you are saying that if I want to NOT Disable Crossfire and to extend my desktop across 2 monitors, I will need this adapater?
Do I need just one? And what would my connections look like ?
2 x 6950
22 " = DVI
17 " = DVI
TV = HDMI
Perhaps that is my first mistake. Currently I have all 3 going to the same card, DVI, DVI and HDMI.
So are you saying I should maybe to DVI, DVI to card 1 and HDMI to card 2?
I'm at work at the moment or else I'd just try it then find out :)
What do you mean by an active DP adapter?
Hi guys,
I have 2x 6950s in Xfire mode and I have 3 monitors (22", 17" and HDMI TV).
The 22" is the primary monitor and I'd like to extend my desktop to the 17" and the HDMI TV.
I don't want to game on 3 monitors, just extend desktop, so I don't think the eyefinitty thing is what I'm...
So I know of this website that streams live sports, which is neat and all, but I'd like to have a way to capture that stream so I can view it later, in case I can't be home to view the live feed.
Does anyone know of any software that accomplishes this without quality loss, or without...
This should work I think.... what z68 board would you recommend? Lets say the budget increases to $500ish... maybe even $550ish, which I might be able to talk him into if the build has future potential.
That's an interesting thought.
So O'clock the current CPU and perhaps drop some dough on this card?

I appreciate the advice, but I want to make something very clear...
He has no desire to play this on MAX settings. I'm just looking for something that can get him playing on a mixture of HIGH / Medium... even 100% Medium would probably be acceptable.
So is the general concencious here that a new MOBO / CPU combo is mandatory?
If he just dropped an old quad in there with a nicer GPU it would not cut it?
This is for my friends PC and I potentially have a PSU to spare... but are we saying that just upgrading to a quad core and GPU would not be enough for this rig?
If I go with an AMD CPU wouldn't that also mean a MOBO upgrade?
Definitely not shooting for ULTRA, that I know is out of the budget...
Hi guys!
The PC in question:
GA-EP35-DS3R - http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2743#sp
CPU Intel Core 2 DUO E6550
4 GB Ram
Old video card that need not be mentioned
500W PSU
THE GOAL: Play BF3 on the highest possible settings that the budget will allow...
^^^^^^^^ This is a must have if you plan on playing UFO Defense today. That link should point you to the mod that allows you to open doors without walking through them among other useful things.
Also you can get the music from the PSX version of the game which is FAR superior to the PC...
So I figured it out..
You have to swap the monitors in the catalyst center and then set the one you want as primary.
So right click and say swap then swap with the other one, that will swap the numbers, then set the one you want as primary. Seemed to do the trick.
I should have been more clear, my bad.
Basically I want the 22" to be the number 1 monitor and the 17" to be the number 2 monitor when I ask them to show me how they are identified.
I swap the connections and it still makes the "17 the number 1 monitor.
Both are DVI connectoins...
