In the future, everyone will have their own Jeopardy-style video walls. Or at least that's the future AMD envisions.

ID have created the Eyefinity graphics card that is capable of supporting up to 6 monitors. Most graphics cards struggle with handling just 1 30 inch monitor with a resolution of about 2560 x 1600 pixels, so for a graphics card to support 6 monitors it’s quite an achievement.

AMD have created a single GPU card that can handle six DisplayPort connectors each having a 30 inch screen attached to it. When the 6 monitors are connected the resolution is bumped all the way to 7680 x 3200 pixels and it functions as a giant screen.

AMD would not share the details of what’s in the card with the folk over at Maximum PC but they were very impressed with what it can do. Flight Sim XPlane 9 ran at full resolution along with Far Cry 2 as well as various tests that achieved 12 – 20 frames per second. The card is currently known as Eyefinity but may change names when officially launched. Well worth looking out for if you are in to multi monitor setups.

with nvidias hybrid sli you can also have up to 6 monitors, though non of them is double hd then

+1 for AMD

that's quite a breakthrough

but here it is one graphic card for six monitors not 6 GPU in sli

isn't it ??

ye. but nvidia hyrbid sli is just one graphicscard + the onboard gpu.

k.. ati and nvidia are still at the same point ^^

nope with that amd overtook nvidia a bit. But two things.
1. where do all this displayports be? Will the amd card take 3 slots than?
2. We don't know what the new nvidia cards will have^^ If this technologie is used a lot nvidia will surely also have it.

+they have to have small borders so there's isn't so much space between the displays.

wait untill stuff get's standard and it'll become cheap

in the future we will all be posting our 6 monitor desktop screenshot's, in the post desktop topic

I don't think that a so wide screen like this is so useful for now .. (my wall isn't as big as the screen ^^)
