Maybe if the screens were really big and the side monitors really moved into peripheral vision then it would be okay. Basically if the bezels are in my peripheral vision and not in my focused vision then it probably wouldn't bother me at all.

I think it depends really for games, in a triple setup, not much, in a dual monitor setup, obviously yes to the point its better to play just on one.

in some of the bigger eyefinity setups the bezels were a complete eyesore too

as for general use, they don't bother me

yea it used to be a big issue with dual monitor. but now with the massive and cheap monitors a big center monitor should work fine with fps.

I've said it a hundred times now in various threads. As long as you can account for the space "behind" the bezel it is a non issue. Sure I wish they weren't there but it is negligable.

those who disagree, I have to ask. Have you ever sat down with it and gave it a go? Or are you looking at screenies and saying "oh no, i couldn't play that."

If you want a first hand experience come over my house for a few harpoons and whirl. I'm sure you will be converted
