vr zone has some information which i copy and pasted some of it here but pretty interesting stuff. even though its marked as a rumor its still some good information if its being told to the partners.

This sounds promising. Is this like TH2go without the TH2go box or something like spaning with 3 monitors rather than the usual 2. Anyone got links to more info on this feature?

That's what it sounds like.
Wouldn't surprise me at all. I have a feeling card manufactures will begin offering triplehead via the graphics card.

It all depends on if its going to be the GPU card its self or the ATI software,

Hardware is always better then Software. Don't forget we have the Mview coming soon and thats DVI and supports 1920x1200 and confirmed 1920x1080@50hz

I Googled around and also saw this "ATi Eyefinity support as of Cat 9.10 (8.66)." Is Cat 9.10 floating around in a place where one of the forum members can see just what Eyefinity is? My hope is ATI forces nVidia's hand to open up SLI Mosaic Mode to the Geforce lines.

I'm not sure this has anything to do with SLI/crossfire modes; early photos of ATi's new DirectX11 cards show them having two HDMI outputs and two DVI outputs, meaning one card could drive three displays.

It's all speculation until thier marketing decides to explain what the label means. Even if it's single card, that means ATI version of span modes. Microsoft+nVidia screwed up on that big time with removing that with the move from XP to Vista.

thanks ez, fixed. id also like to add that another news post on techpowerup.com has suggested the price for this card to be very aggressive, and is expected to be $299USD.
