    I have used Monoprice in the past for cables and mounts as they are one of the most cost efective places to geat HT gear.

    I found these video audio splitters and was wondering if there are a much cheaper alternitive to TrippleHead2Go splitters and may of use to some members

    Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but none of these products will work. The idea is to take 1 video source and place PORTIONS of it on multiple screens therefore creating one large screen. All of these products are designed to take a video input and place the ENTIRE image on multiple screens therefore creating multiple screens with the exact same picture.

    EYEFINITY .... but .....
    1) EyeFinity can't do mix resolutions. All 3 monitor or 6 monitor to be same size

    2) EyeFinity hasn't cylindrical correction.

    3) EyeFinity can't force resolution

    4) EyeFinity can't force FOV

    EyeFinity can do more than 3 displays and it's very simply to config it

    alternative to th2go is mview technology http://www.mviewtech.com/

    ....... or with software

    TrippleHead2Go too can't mix different resolution and aspect ratio

    MV103-HDVE PRO can mix different resolution and aspect ratio, compensate for monitor bezel gaps ?

    Yes, i have already read the specification, and the bezel gaps too is not supported. But the price very beautiful, plus 5040x1050x60hz against 57hz at TrippleHead2Go 8)

    we have tested 5760x1080 50HZ and 4800x1200 55HZ that are OK for WINXP system.
    If you interesting these format,you can order it at DHGATE,and send the internal message at DHGATE and note 4800x1200 55HZ or 5760x1080 50HZ(user can only select one format for you product).we will add this format for you.

    No,because 5760x1080x60= 373.3Mhz over the DVI bandwidth(330Mhz).

    How about an HDMI or Display Port version?

    We would use Eyefinity, but our simulators use WinXP only.

    HDMI(165Mhz) or Displayport (360Mhz) can't run at 5760x1080 60HZ.
    but Eyefinity now only support Vista or Win7.

    Can you point to a section where it mentions that it does EyeFinity on XP? The page you have referenced is a generic driver DL page.
