Since there are now a lot of new cards from Nvidia and AMD that do have output designs optimized for multi-screen users, this thread is getting a bit outdated. However, if you own either of these cards, you can still come here and get support.

NOTICE: This thread also covers the Asus HD7970-DC2T-3GD5, since they are essentially the same.
Estimated date of release in the UK: 22nd of Februari. This is probably the same for all of Europe, although I haven't found any exact dates.
There seems to be a problem on the 'T' cards with voltage regulation to the GDDR5 memory that can only be hardware fixed. Sweclockers.com has had direct conversation with Asus people, no source link yet. This has been fixed.
FYI: This thread covers the new Asus 7970's and the MSI R7970's, which are at this moment out on the market. Here (thanks to sparx) you can find a cool article on the making of the Asus cards. Additional info will be put here when we hear it. Furthermore, I will make an in-depth review about the card when I recieve it.
Original thread below.
Okay, so I recently stumbled upon this 7970;
http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/AMD_Series/HD7970DC23GD5/#specifications
This card features four Displayports and 2 DVI connections (one of them is dual-link, but requires an extra clock. This will
disable one of the Displayports via a switch on the card.

MSI also brought fourth there version of the 7970, which is slightly better in performance;
http://www.msi.com/product/vga/R7970-Lightning.html
This card features the same amount of outputs, but MSI opted for Mini-Displayports instead of Displayports. It does
not have a dual-link DVI port.
Post/ask anything about these cards here, there are always people here to help.
