Hello LTT Community,

 

So I finally got my third ultrawide today, and I'm trying to get NVSurround to work correctly.

 

The issues I'm having are this..

 

Both my monitors are 2560 x 1080 @ 60hz

Monitor 1 & 3 (Left and Right) are plugged in VIA DVI-D

Monitor 2 is plugged in VIA  HDMI.

Graphics Cards: 2x GTX 970 STRIX

Driver Version: 355.98

OS: Windows 10 Pro

 

 

When setting up NVSurround my only available resolution is 5760x1080 which is the resolution of 2 monitors, not 3 (3 would be 7,680x1080)

 

Does anyone know how to get this to work?

 

Thanks.

Is your HDMI monitor working at its native resolution ?

 

Also, i dont know if tat's right but Surround plays better with 2dvi and one DP

Does the Surround Setup detect all monitors?

 

Yes, it gives me all three monitors (shows 3 in the display area labeled 1,2,3), and has all 3 checked.

Yes, it's running its native resolution, and my monitor only supports dual hdmi (dual input for splitscreen LG 25UM57 with 2 LG 25UM65)

Wait, so you have two different monitors?

But those should all be 2560x1080, so it should theoreticly work with surround, or shouldn't it?

They should. Could you maybe post a picture of the part that goes wrong?

Sorry for the slow replies, at work at the moment.

Yes, they are 2 different monitors, but the same spec/resolution (LG discontinued the 25UM65's)
