PowerColor Designs Radeon HD 5970 4GB Graphics Card with 12 Display Outputs
While major AMD AIBs have given their creativity wings with the Radeon HD 5970, coming up with uber-high end graphics cards, PowerColor joined the party with its latest creation in the making: a graphics card with 12 display outputs! The design wires all six TMDs from each of the two GPUs into DisplayPort connectors, letting users make large Eyefinity display-heads. Each of the two GPUs is connected to 2 GB of GDDR5 memory making the total memory on board to 4 GB. The card is expected to be the thickest among others' HD 5970 designs, spanning over three expansion slots (two slot-spaces occupied by 12 mini-DP ports and one with the exhaust). PowerColor may choose Computex as the ideal launch-vehicle for this monstrosity. More details are awaited, but there's a Frankenstein picture of the card to go on.

24 monitors of pure eye infinity
And yet ... the targeting reticule will still be hidden behind the bezel! An odd number of monitors it the only way to do proper gaming. Unless ... you set up your monitor in 2 groups ... one of nine and one of three. Hmmm ... that could work.
And I'm not sure you can get projectors with high enough resolutions to match that?
24*$160(the cheapest 22' monitor on Newegg) = $3840
1*$2600 (the most expensive projector, maybe not the best) = $2600
But that's just me....:toast:
