Like topic said i want to build one big display or atleast two small display groups with 6 screen each.

When i try to build them i can only build 3x2 and the rest of the screens show besides.. usless.. Or rather single monitor mode.

The hole ide of buying two cards was so i could simulate one bigdisplay wich works flawless on one card... but two seems not to work good at all.

Is the limit of eyefinit 6 screen one computer ? seems strang.. i saw some publicity a while ago with eyefinity 12 editon cards but seems they did not make the market.

 

Anyone else trying two display groups or two cards ? Any help or hints to create one big display with my 12 monitors ?

As far as I know, a single virtual screen must be created on a single card, and no single card supports more than six monitors.  So you can't do what you want to do.

Yeah seems i need to state my problem in a better way.. But you are on the right track. Yeah i also know that  a single card supports 6 screens, but there have been of the market cards with eyefinity 12 editon what happend to it i dont know.

http://hothardware.com/News/Computex-2010-PowerColors-HD-5970-Eyefinity-12-Edition-and-HD-5770-Evolution-with-Lucid-Hydra/

But the problem is i have 2 graphic cards and want to have a 6x2 dispaly group or "virtual screen". So i am not talking about 1 single card, i have 2x eyefinity 6 edition cards.

sorry for being unclare i think i need to remake the problem statement.

Is eyefinity resolution necessary for presentations? Presentations are viewed by people sitting far away. They won't see a thing anyway, so why not use a projector, and you'd even have a big secreen without interruptions?

That would be nice to play some games...

 

Anyway, I could just found this:

http://www.cinemassive.com/products/video-wall/lcd-video-wall/

http://www.cinemassive.com/products/video-wall/video-wall-mount/

It's hard to find any related article for this..

Also this:

http://www.matrox.com/graphics/en/products/display_wall/mura_mpx_series/#close

Matrox is known as a very trusted multi-monitors setup builder through adapters and/or cards..

 

Hope it helps a bit..

 

Best regards...
