AFAIK Z68 boards have this Lucid Logic Chip built in, which enables usage of IGP+GPU.

Indeed, in my bios I have the option to enable integrated graphics even when a separate gpu is installed. My question would be, does it work or would I run into some issues? If nobody has experience in that area, I guess I will do some testing myself.

Sad part of the Story, just heard someone Talking about Tearing on HD7970! gotta ask him how and what he did to get it, i'll get back later.

I'm not sure if you're talking about regular 7970's or the ASUS one. If you're talking about the ASUS card, could you be as quickly as possible? I'm sorry, but I'm kinda in a hurry :~

Nah, it was the Normal HD7970! And it was the First time i ever heard some1 talk bout HD7970 and Screen tearing! i know of at least 5 other people not having any problems!

Well, I'm taking the certain for the uncertain, because if you mix different display-outputs it's a recipe for tearing. I'm getting an Asus HD7970-DC2-3GD5 or the Asus HD7970-DC2T-3GD5.

If anyone else has more info about his card, please share it! There a far too few people using this card (for eyefinity) and sharing their experiences.

The reason that nobody is talking about that card is that isn't out yet. It will at least take another 2 weeks for it being availible in the Netherlands.

If I didn't knew it already, I would be certain about which country you are from... ;) That saying can only be used in Dutch.

The most optimistic (shady) shop tells us that the minimum time untill the cards are in stock is 10 days, so two weeks seems reasonable.

Tweakers > Hardware.info, no offense there though. But you're probably right. :/

There is almost no quantity out there on the shelves of this card. Not many people have it yet. Right now this card would be the one to get though. Just have to be mindful of 16x slot spacing on your mobo if you ever plan to use two. My EVGA E762 is no issue, but most other mobos are setup with 2 slot spacing not three.

Until like a couple of months ago Tweakers ruled all, but since HardwareInfo refreshes there pricewatch more often I like to theirs. Using both work as well. I hope I am not right, but I am afraid I probably am.
