I just read an article about the GF100 that Nvidia is going to release soon. They mentioned that GeForce 3D Vision, which is Nvidia's EyeFinity. I don't really know very much about EyeFinity because I never cared about it until now. So what are the differences between EyeFinity and 3D Vision? The very first thing I noticed that was different was bezel correction. The addition of bezel correction takes into account the fact that you’ll have fairly sizable gaps between each display, hiding that part of the game behind the bezel to provide an experience Nvidia describes similar to looking through a cockpit window’s frames. I've always wanted to know if EyeFinity had bezel correction. I remember a few months ago, we had a discussion on whether EyeFinity has bezel correction or not. http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/showpost.php?p=288221&postcount=20 So basically 3D Vision uses method 2, Shadowex3's explanation, which has it's advantages and disadvantages. The way Nvidia explained it, it sounds good because it's like looking through a cockpit. But a lot of the original video is cut off and not seen. These few extra pixels can be very important if in intense battle. Does anyone know if EyeFinity uses method 2 or method 3? Link to comment

I want 3D vision+eyefinity Link to comment

Even in a cockpit they try to give pilots a window right in front of them rather than opaque frame. Also 3d makes no real sense to me, I've never been particularly impressed by the effect.

It doesn't seem like it would have much use other than having a zombie knife come out of your monitor, taunting you when you get zombified. Or perhaps if you view of picture of TCP...

The new graphics card from Nvidia will probably support more monitors because that is what they do, beat the shit outta ATI.. So I have to go with Nvidia for this one.... Link to comment

That's exactly what GeForce 3D Vision is. It's the name of the multiple monitor support by Nvidia. Link to comment
