Possible Usages

The Eyefinity technology definitely adds more value to the Radeon HD 5000 solutions; thanks to the availability of LCD displays, it’s easier to have the possibility of using at least three monitors at the same time.

The configuration isn’t exactly a problem, although the procedure from the Catalyst control panel can be a little long and induce errors on those not so tech-savvy, but nothing that a few tries wouldn’t solve. The compatibility with games is very good as well, with only a few modern titles being incompatible with the technology.

But the important thing is to know how to configure the technology in order to suit specific needs. Some titles would benefit more from three monitors, others from six, but there are also other advantages outside the gaming world. Having a bigger desktop in some cases is a good solution in some working environments as well, in cases where an extended desktop is needed. While for a gamer, the whole solution would be an extravagance, in a working environment it can end up being quite cheap.
