Samsung to launch a six monitor setup for AMD Eyefinity technology



As you noticed in our previous story, bezels on those Dell's were a little bit thick. Samsung has an answer for that - display giant is teaming up with AMD. When we saw the six display setup over at AMD's HQ, I was personally awed by the experience a gamer gets while playing in 25 Megapixel resolution, e.g. 7680x3200 pixels. But the thick bezels on Dell's 3008WFP might be inconvenient for long hour gaming sessions.

In order to combat that, Samsung's executives were in a similar state of shock as yours truly were... and the display giant decided to team up with AMD and "create a special product for a special technology."

Samsung's Eyefinity: World, meet six 22" displays with ultra-thin bezels

Samsung Eyefinity is nothing short of amazing - just like the company teamed up with nVidia for their 22" display and 3D Vision glasses, Samsung jumped onboard for AMD Eyefinity technology and created a ultimate gaming setup: six displays feature not the 7680x3200, but rather 5760x2160 resolution [six 1080p displays], but it is still nothing short of spectacular.

The backbone for six displays is a telescopic carrier that is able to hold the weight of six 23" PVA displays, produced at a good cost [$200]. At the time of writing, we weren't informed about the price of this setup, but AMD assures us that the price will be competing with between one or two Dell 30" displays from our previous story. The final color of the bezels is not set, with Samsung evaluating black, gray and white color schemes.

Mass production of these displays is expected in December 2009, with availability set for holiday season 2009.

You dont notice the bezels at all and it's great.
Can't wait by: Anonymous on 11/26/2009
Anyone who bitches about the bezels in a 3x1 setup has obviously never gamed on it before. All your focus is on the center monitor, the 2 side monitors just provide peripheral vision. You don't even notice the bezels after about 2 minutes. I can see how it would be annoying in a 3x2 setup though, as your crosshair/character would be split between the bottom and top monitor. Personally I'd use 3x2 for racing/flight sims and 3x1 for FPS games.

Interesting, but will wait till they completely remove the inner-bezels.

6144x2304 display with 2343BWX panels by: Anonymous on 9/11/2009
I hope Samsung will at least consider using their 23" 2048 x 1152 panel instead (2343BWX). Or at least upgrade that panel to an ultra-thin bezel to allow us a choice. With that panel a 3x2 display would be 6144x2304. I would definitely consider buying 2 with the idea of adding more later.

New Servers are in!

 Greetings and welcome to BSN*,

We have just acquired several brand new servers that are being configured on a multiple 100Mbps links and set up in line with the new features and services that are launching soon. We were assured this investment will solve any issues that plagued the site as a consequence of being linked on mainstream media networks.

We will inform you when the server change takes place, as BSN will be offline for 24-72 hours. Expect a heads-up a week ahead.
