League of Legends AMD Eyefinity 5X1 5400x1920

[@MattJasa]

I was thinking of doing somthing like this setup for awhile, I was going to aim for bigger screens to avoid so many bevels in my view. But in the end i scrapped the idea and just got 1 big screen. No stretching, no bevels, just 1 big space for anything awesome. It works perfect for gaming, the only flaw is low qaulity content, like in 280p youtube videos you see every flaw

[@GaMEChld]

I've tried 3 monitor eyefinity with League, and there are some large downsides to it: 1) Since your effective screen size is so large, if you are used to panning the screen by mouse at the screen borders, the side borders are much farther now than the top and bottom borders. 2) A good league player needs to be looking at the map constantly, and this resolution pushes the map to the far right of your direct line of sight. So a few game optimizations and this would be pretty slick.

[@X-E-Qt-R]

nice sound btw + with those Displays Cinema feeling :) I liked it

[@drmrdude04]

theres a difference between screen size and resolution. you can have a 22 inch and 42 inch screen, but they both display 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels. if you add a screen, you have more pixels. so it adds viewing area and doesnt stretch whats being displayed. ie. 1 screen = 1920x1080; 2 screens = 3840x1080; 3 screens 5760x1080. also note that is if they are in widescreen, landscape position, not portrait as in this video.

[@bobsquirrelking]

Despite what most people seem to think, there are no bits "lost" behind the edges of the monitors.What is displayed on the right edge of one screen is one pixel away from what is displayed on the left edge of the next. You just have to deal with lines in the middle of your screen.

[@Alpha2261]

@solidsnake9254 they aren't covering the screen, where one screen stops, the other picks up. There's no space between them

[@DanWalshTV]

@101HeyNow Having the curved setup esp in the above game allows you to detect players coming from a direction you wouldn't see on one screen. As well having the larger resolution aside from the pixels (which do make a big diff when you're focusing on up close detail, maybe not so much for general graphics), add more field of view thus you'll see 3x the map. Try playing on 1920 x 1080, and then 5400 x 1080, it's not comparable.

[@adracamas]

Yeah.. I would have to find some way to get the visible screens to butt together somehow.. those bars would drive me crazy on that rig.

[@Haxpatty]

@RsStuka Same reason for me. Maybe in the future they will make monitors that have very small or removable edging.

[@mypsychologic]

Love the setup for the fact that is looks to be running very smooth, the black bars are quite annoying though. Impressive but impractical.

[@MadLemon]

ahahaha, i like how the movement animation cicks in after a character passes the 2 diplays on the sides

[@00000000127]

@jimbo121 this is what everyone says that doesn't have a setup like this. I have my resolution set to 5760x1080 and I love it, there's nothing cheap about it and trust me it is fun. You'd think you would never get over the black lines but trust me you dont notice it much, and when I do it kind of makes me smile

[@ThoughTMusic]

@wapenstilstandsonder So true. They'll flaunt their cash spending but be too afraid to void a warranty or two.

[@johntownson9870]

Whoa i would love to have four 1 inch thick black bars on my screen whilst playing games. Great product(s).

[@kidkool27]

The black lines are the separate monitors. No way to get rid of those unless you make one large screen.

[@tombokkers1997]

that is totally different. Taking in consideration that the refresh rate is almost always limited with larger screens, the resolution is limited to 1080p AND it isn't curved.

[@Samouflage]

GOD I want to play this game now. I've missed Warcraft 3 for so long, and I just can't take it anymore!! I miss the custom games/maps, and I miss the community. I just need my fix, and as soon as I get my G73 back from the factory (overheating, probably bad thermal paste like I heard of from others), this will be one of the first things I install. And that display is MEANT for strategy games, good God almighty.

[@BFKAnthony817]

@TheDank1887 My guess is he likes the wrap around look, so he feels like he is more immersed. If I was going for the immersion factor, I would get the new Sony 3D VR goggles. That thing is wicked and makes you feel like you are really there. All you see is the 2 miniature screens only a few inches from your eyes. I would turn off the lights and get lost in that thing. Search "Sony personal 3d viewer", will make you fall in love since it is OLED, 3D and does 720P, pretty good for a VR set.

[@unarmedsquirrel]

Love the idea of multiple displays but the edging of the tv's splitting the image would really iritate me thats the only reason i don't do it

[@jimbo121]

these setups are fun if you like seeing black lines in your field of view. The real gamer still games with 1 monitor.

[@GaMEChld]

The human eye has a limit in differentiating pixel density, not number of pixels. More pixels is more viewing area. The retina display doesn't have anywhere near the number of pixels this setup has, but its pixel desnity is extremely high, such that the eye has trouble seeing the individual pixels. On this setup, you'd be able to see the individual pixels, but that's not the point. The point is he can basically have view of half the map at once. The real area this shines is in FPS games.

[@GaMEChld]

Haters gonna hate! For those of you bothered by the black bars, the best application of this configuration is in FPS type games where the side monitors are essentially filling your peripheral vision. You still look straight ahead as you normally would, but it adds a sense of immersion. The black bars fade away from thought, as would a window pane when your attention is on what is outside the window. Well, that's the best way I can explain it anyway! Hope that helps!

[@ThoseTesTis]

@ThePanguin The higher the res in League, the more of the map you see. So multiple screens are inefficient with the black bars, but a higher res is better.

[@DaremAq]

@ZeroController I doubt there is a 52' with 5400x1920 resolution. Its not about size, it's about viewing distance.

[@SuperCoolLemon]

@ZeroController uh a 50" screen will give you a res of 1920 x 1080. I'm just assuming monitors don't go to that size so the 2500 x 1600 res is not really a factor but if so its still really not. Seeing he has them turned and with 5 of them he will bring in a total res of 5400 x 1920. His insanity doesn't go without reason.

[@drakevids]

The jelly is strong with this one.

[@QuesoCookies]

His field of view is totally OP...

[@laup4321]

It will be sweat as borders on screens get smaller and smaller, or the curved type huge all in one screens =)

[@HarleyzChannel]

@SwiftFishy actually, i have the XFX TRI monitor stand with 3 Dell P2210 in portrait mode "eyefinity" and the bezels are really not as bad as one might think they are, give it a week and your eyes will adjust and you wont even know they are there, but i can see were your coming from but its not really true haha.

[@Turtlelegion]

@Gabrol He is meaning the screen sides. (black bars)

[@Toastyman69]

Your bezel is pretty funky on the left 2 monitors

[@h0tstepp3r]

epic mate just epic !

[@Nicholas19846]

You right, it just have 2 port, mini display port and HDMI port. Other is USB port.

[@ofnihility]

The only reason this beats a large screan is the fact it bends around the user so you can be closer.

[@ABusFullaJewz]

@SwiftFishy It actually doesn't. i have a 3 monitor setup which i mostly use for racing, and i rarely even notice it. I don't have any experience playing moba's, but i would imagine it is a little more noticeable since you aren't looking "beyond" the screen like you are in race sims

[@Matticitt]

@damian6831 You know it's not about the size ? It's about the resolution, because even a high end 60" tv is 1920x1080. Although I agree that 5 screens is to much. 3 are enough by all means.

[@Jonj57]

You dont notice the lines when gaming, but it's just a preference.

[@jakus789]

@SwiftFishy Yeah, that's why I prefer one monitor.

[@TheRealZanatoes]

Ok the point in doing this is 1 big monitor say 42 inchs at 1920 wide would show less picture than 3 monitors at 1440 each equaling 4320 wide.. So you see more of the game like this.

[@TheMichels89]

Dominion, It's fun and fast. Like this computer.

[@SB_Tommy]

u can actually see the inhibs in summoners rift standing at ur base so maybe it does matter

[@BishopsToenail]

Your assumptions are correct in these circumstances but i would still prefefr to have the one or two bigger screens as, despite the loss of quality, there is an advantage when doing cirtain tasks as i found when using other eyefinity setups that the borders of the screens get in the way and break ip the words when you are trying to read them, SOLUTION?!

[@papi100cool]

Bf3 + All this screens + 3D + Headphones + Nvidia Geforce 590 = Total Realistic

[@Choucroute59300]

he put all his money on the screens, so the mouse is a ball mouse from 1995...

[@lifeisgood070]

That is amazing. I am super jealous.

[@riaden13]

That is just amazing!

[@neogastropoda1]

this tech still has yet to prove itself, when the average PC can play games like this well TV manufacturers might decide to make screens with thinner borders with the goal of having no borders

[@verybang]

For this game, no. For racing and fps games, however, it's truly amazing. You don't even notice the monitor bezels because the extra monitors are just there for the peripheral experience and increasing your FOV. You say "not for me" cause you've never seen nor tried it. I was picky about it too until I setup 3 monitors to test Dirt3 and BF3 and it provides the best gaming experience. My 65" TV can't keep up with this :P

[@MegaTafe]

wow, quite good view with that setup (Y)

[@Ti_1227]

@SwiftFishy you probbly get used to it, i have 2, and i barely notice it

[@willfullyinformed]

@SwiftFishy Yeah just trying this with less monitors it was still annoying trying to play any kind of FPS game. You can't aim specifically where you want to due to the black lines of wonderness.

[@andresjk]

that kind of screen configuration is useful when you have different things on each monitor, playing like that is just ridiculous.

[@DarrylPerry101]

@Medaste I think it's cool thanks for the vid

[@uRnotGOODLikeME]

@TheBlackBritt you would still have to turn and look

[@mypsychologic]

@ZlimXpreZz Listen to that mouse clicking hand and take a guess. But with the kind of money for that setup I'm sure he could have bought one by now.

[@villerend]

Buys five Flat-screen Tv's. Plays League of Legends.

[@skaterblm1]

@MauzerBeatbox if by meter you mean mile

[@MrMaster2u2]

DUDE... That is awesome. how many HD6990's do you need for this?

[@devilmastah]

@ThePanguin might be less efficient but its way more fun !

[@GoldenMurderer]

@MrPhantompants There is a bunch of black lines an inch and a half thick. It would suck.

[@liedjesluisteraar]

People say it's ugly, but when you got 3 monitors for yourself you get used to it and don't se those black strips. And "LOL" is not crap it is just a game. And my opinion i think it looks awesome. Mother of Screen's

[@THE16THPHANTOM]

@TheSlipknotist i think its annoying to look at those lines the screen makes...i would definitely go for the big screen.

[@EV1LDRAG0N]

convicts will enjoy playing with this gaming setup xD lol

[@dh86able]

@slbaaron Well the resolution and color must be fucking amazing:) I'm jealous now. I'd dislike this setup for FPS gaming tho, but i used to play WOW and this would have blown my mind.

[@zackbcom2]

The reason I say just buy one screen, I personally don't like the bezel being visible on each screen. The images don't exactly line up correctly. The field of view is also messed up on the edge screens.

[@happybois]

it's funny how they brain has been compensating for such obvious flaws since the 8 bit days. the black lines dont even register when you're engaged in the game. but i would prefer a tri or maybe 5 (if i could even afford 1) projector set up myself.

[@JZgames]

@TheDank1887 Because TVs don't get up to that high of a resolution.

[@patawic]

@AdrielDraude i prefer spam clicking then holding.

[@DanWalshTV]

@ZeroController It's not about the screen size, it's about the resolution. Do you know how many more pixels are on that compared to just a 50 inch screen?

[@stanistheman12]

@Fungustthegreat Bro obivously you need gtx 690 sli with a intel core i7 995x extreme to play this game on low settings.

[@iqtuz]

Your brain will ignore those lines after a while. It's the same with how your brain work. If you look down with your eyes(seeing the nose) you will see some shadowish part of your nose, but if you are not looking after it, you don't really see it.

[@walkerdude5]

Its like watching a game through prison bars

[@Olaipai]

THIS PERSON IS INVISIBLE! D:

[@Vaxxnor]

you guys DO realize its not stretching the screen right?? its extending it...hence the 5400x1920.....and not 1920x1080

[@muumipeikkoxlolx]

Nice Work xD !

[@challenger5b]

:o.... you´re kidding^^ epic setup +

[@TwistedVitamin]

samsung is gonna release an big ass surround ( adjustable ) screen for this kind of things in the late 2012 ;)

[@Rooftopaccessorizer]

maybe, but it feels like 10X more intense. if i played games on this, id never do anything else, because it would be like playing games on a movie theatre screen

[@rock962000]

@R0ma1n LOL IKR?

[@3rdGenGuy]

my hd 5970 av fps in league with 1 screen is 400fps so i can imagine your 6990 is not stressed by these 5 screens.

[@IronSkiesBlk]

This is cool to look at, but I don't know if it necessary

[@TeddiousBear]

More then one screens generally has more quality since your running not one 50" monitor at 1920*1080 but 3-5 monitors at 5760*1080 or 9600*1080 which in theory is more pixels which would provide better quality. I could be wrong but that is my assumption.

[@prophit06]

@prophit06 It does LOOK nice though!

[@Tadaaahhhh]

would be amazing if this would be one monitor ;). maybe in future

[@Imdroppingdimes]

This is nuckin' futs.

[@vtwinbreed]

Looks Hoooorrible!

[@IndieAuthorX]

Does the wide angle view make a big difference for you on playing advantage, or is it just for looks?

[@jonguy2011]

ive seen moniters where they are already concave so this especially the bars arent needed anymore

[@theanimated1]

they should make this but without the black lines like mabye connect them somehow

[@Gabrol]

@timoman6 derp, there's no between screens

[@mrhenk007]

@R0ma1n you have to balance it out i guess

[@filiphcarlen]

You don't understand, it is the resolution that is the thing, not size.

[@papi100cool]

@TheRaellz You're right :)

[@stullemitjagdwurst]

the screens are great, but i'm more interested in how the guy gets invisible! :-o

[@ThoughTMusic]

@Mayochapstick Strange. I've helped a number of poeple do projects like this. You remove the frame and re-seat the control board to the back of the monitor itself instead of the frame. If you happen to snap a wire, then you envolk the power of a soldering iron. The only thing you are right about is that it does in fact void your warranty. If you are too afraid to do the complete job, enjoy your giant distracting lines and try to refrain from flaunting your mediocrity...

[@ThoughTMusic]

@Mayochapstick No, if you read your own statement, you state that people don't do it because they would find a boarder underneath the frame itself that will defeat the chances of removing the spaces between the monitors and apparently make the monitor unusable. That is wrong. If you can live with the spaces, fine, but don't try to show off unless you actually CREATE a good setup. That's my point. Don't try to hate just because of "you" inferior claim.

[@RickyTricky90]

I'd rather have one gigantic tv in the middle then one on each side of that to avoid the black lines, and still allow my peripheral vision to see the others.

[@iDeadPlanet]

this would be amazing for club penguin!

[@rtnoobify]

nice set up
