Eyefinity? and Vsync?

[jijoslin]

First I would like to know if I need two of the exact same brand and size monitors for eyefinity? and this is for a crossfired hd5850's setup, I don't want to loose the performance increase of crossfire,but I'm not sure how eyefinity works, also what is vsync used for?

you can use any brand/size monitor combination. eyefinity on two monitors is a waste though...

V Sync:

So I take it 3 monitors or better for eyefinity?

 

[jefe323]

yes

If the game has triple buffering, you should just leave Vsync on.
