I've been having a hard time locating them (every search I run give me tons of mini-dp to HDMI/VGA/DVI, etc) cables, but not finding a lot of Mini-DP to DP cables.

I found this one...
http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042803&p_id=5714&seq=1&format=2

does anybody have it? I need 4, will they fit well on the back of an eyefinity 6?

Can somebody recommend a website in the US that has a cable form of this?

I can order from monoprice, I think they are a great site and have tons of stuff from them.

I was worried if 4 of these adapters would fit across the back of the card, and was also hoping for a cable based version instead of a hard adapter type, both from a space concern, and a stress of the mini-dp connectors over time concern.

Hmm... You may need to use extenders.

here's a place that has them for $8: http://www.papatek.com/Cable/Mini-Displayport-to-DP--Short-Cable.html
Buy.com has some for $5 a pop: http://www.buy.com/prod/mini-displayport-male-to-dp-female-cable-for-apple-macbook-macbook-pro/q/listingid/82843269/loc/101/215326185.html
