The last image is wrong. 1920×1600 should be 1920×1200.
Heh, didn’t even notice. Blame AMD, they made those images for press distribution 😛
I’m trying to get 1 1080p and 2 1280×1024 to work. Any help?
I think I’m switching camps this summer; can barely even play Minecraft because Nvidia’s driver crashes with it.
From time to time I come to this page, I’m running an Eyefinity setup for a couple years now, and now that I’m upgrading for a R9 390, my next purchase will definitely be a 29″ superwide screen to finally get the 6400×1080 res.
