My PC is eyefinity 4 capable but what i don't know is how it will work during games etc. My setup is three in a row and another on top of the center monitor. Any ideas how this will work on Eyefinity? will it just use the bottom 3 for games
and keep windows on the top one?

Thanks for any help

Eyefinity with an even number of screens isn't a good idea, because half of your crosshair/cursor/point of focus is on one monitor and half on the other.best use 3 for eyefinity & a seperate screen.

So it would work, the game would be on all 4? would the monitor above get an extended view or would it bee kind of stretched?

Eyefinity wont work well for games with an even number of screens,
because the bezels will land smack in the middle,
it would look even worse with a monitor on top of the centre one.
I meant use the three 3 monitors in a row in eyefinity,
then the top one as a seperate screen for something else.

actually eyefinity on 4 screens is brilliant for racing games, some racing games allow a 4th screen (above the middle center screen) to be used as a rear mirror, some setups have 3 large monitors and a small (for example 9" monitor) as the rear view.
