Okay, So I have just recently (within last 30 days) built my new rig. Primarily it is a gaming rig. I have an SLI setup using 2X EVGA FTW 670's. Since I built the rig I have been experiencing issues with my graphics which I will try to explain here.
The two games I have tried playing have been Diablo 3 and World of Warcraft. I should also say here that I am using 3 24" monitors setup in Nvidia's Surround. My issues are as follows:
1. Diablo runs 100% fine on the system with no issues at all. Because I run it in a single monitor I sometimes have to tab out to do something on the web. With surround enabled the left and right monitors are blackened out(basically turned off) while I play. When I tab out, Sometimes, and it only happens sometimes, the middle monitor will become messed up visually where I can make out the graphics of whats supposed to be shown, but the picture is fuzzy and and it is all shaded either red/blue/yellow. When I turn the monitor off and back on it fixes the display issue every time but I do not know why it is happening. I should say here that the middle monitor that this happens on is the monitor I kept from my old pc but it is the exact same model of the other two. I don't think it is an age issue since it is only 2 years old.
2. While Diablo 3 works great I have had nothing but problems with World of Warcraft. Since it is designed to be run across 3 monitors I choose to attempt it. I have tried going full-screen across all three and the game starts-up just fine, however after a few minutes the video display driver crashes. I have tried both direct x 11 and 9. With 9 it doesn't crash in the game, but it does when I exit the game and forces me to restart the whole computer due to locking up. I should also mention that with direct x 9 the cursor dissappears when I stop moving it unless I turn off hardware cursor in the game options. This crashing also happens if I try running the game windowed on one monitor which is how I ran it when I only had one monitor and one video card on my old rig.
I am looking for someone to give me some ideas to narrow down and fix these issues. I will include the specs of what I put into the rig in case any of that helps.
