Post subject:  I made a purchase today!

Well, I made a BIG purchase today. Not what you are thinking! I bought a new Hyundai Santa Fe! :)
My 9 year old van has 260,000 KMs on it and is rusting from the salt used to keep the streets free of ice. I am still waiting for the DirectCUII cards to be in stock. I have "almost" decided to get a single ASUS HD7970 DirectCUII at this time. If it works out well, GREAT. If not, Kepler is coming soon too. :)

Post subject:  Im considering getting this

Im considering getting this card(whenever they are available), my question is, can i just use one DP - DVI active adapter with this card and another 2 DVI monitors no problem?

Yes you can, but I believe one of the two dvi connectors has a maximum resolution output of 1920x1080. So the question is what monitors are you planning to connect this card to?

No Way????
A Normal 7970 has 2TMDS with 4 Signals, for DL-DVI you need 2 signals. I don't think that ASUS modified the card that there is only 1 TMDS (equal 2x SL-DVI)
Other possibility is that 2nd DVI Slot has only 1 Signal and 2nd signal is for DP so that you could use passive DVI/HDMI adapters. But i dont think so! imho

Post subject:  I think that was an issue

I think that was an issue with the previous DCII, aka the 6970. The new one has 2 full dual link DVI connectors, last I checked.

Anyhow, I pre-ordered this card yesterday (Germany) I will post when it arrives.

Post subject:  So Moose, you managed to

So Moose, you managed to order one of these cards then? Just out of curiousity I've kept an eye out for them here in the UK but still haven't seen them being available.
How much did you end up paying?
