ArgonV Hotshot Registered: 01/10/01 Posts: 6889 Loc: College Station, Texas, USA	I have my outer two angled at about 30 degrees. It lessens the distortion some. However, this affects desktop work slightly, but I'm used to it now and it doesn't both me in the slightest. _________________________ "Go Fly A Kite!" -Jason R.

- Ice Hotshot Registered: 06/23/05 Posts: 7419 Loc: Philippines / North East UK	Originally Posted By: F19_CoNa a review/tutorial on how to set it up. Note, if you have a eyefinity capable card, you only need one card. start at 21 minutes I remember now why I don't watch this program... hard to concentrate on the content with all that roundness staring at you. With the two guys doing the review, I could understand more. 25-30degrees, thanks guys! I've not measured mine yet, but I have it so that when I turn my head to look at either one, it will be facing me as squarely as possible. Can't wait to try formation flying with this!! _________________________ - Ice

All I know that if you get Triplescreens in a good working config I would say it would be hard to go Back to just a single screen... Makes gaming so much more fun..

- Ice Hotshot Registered: 06/23/05 Posts: 7419 Loc: Philippines / North East UK	I agree 100%! It's like when you start gaming with TrackIR, or with the Cougar MFDs... once you know what is possible, you'll miss it when it's not there. I wonder if that is F4BMS? What FOV are you using? What angles are your side monitors at? How'd you get rid of the bezels? _________________________ - Ice

I am not sure of the Angles of my side screens, I could get a Protractor to find out but it looks like it may be about30-40 Degrees?? No Bezels with well VERY Minimal with Projectors.. _________________________ Intel i5 3570K @ 4.10ghz / Corsair XMS 8gb / CM Hyper 212+ Heatsink & DualFan / Asus P8Z68-V Gen3 Mobo / 2- Evga 660GTX's SLI / RocketFish SC 7.1 / 3 - Sharp DLP XR-10XL's / 3 - 45" Screens w/Screen Goo / nVidia 3D vision / Win7 64bit OS / ThrustMaster Cougar HOTAS w/CH Rudder Pedals / Cougar MFD's / CM HAF 932 Full Tower / Boatload of Joy

- Ice Hotshot Registered: 06/23/05 Posts: 7419 Loc: Philippines / North East UK	Right.... I'm trying to make a custom desktop wallpaper, and I was hoping to have a different left, center, and right image. I've created a proper .jpg file ready for use, but selecting it just ends up showing the middle image on all 3 screens Any way to make the wallpaper span all 3 screens? Thanks! EDIT: Seems like I have to tile my image... funny though since my center monitor appears to be 0,0 and the image starts from there. Nothing a simple Photoshop can't fix!
