Oh that's interesting, there's only 2 passive adapters since I'm guessing there's still only 2 DVI clocks?

Correct.

official release date for this? :shock:

Benchmark and Review information is embargoed until March 11th. I'd say right about then.

Does anyone know if Eyefinity 6 will support 5 X 1 or 6 X 1, depending on display resolution. As I understand it, Eyefinity 6 has a 8K X 8K pixel limit when it comes to output resolutions. BTW. This is similar to Dual Quadraplex...

Silly question maybe.
But are there any displays in existance which can connect to this graphics card without an adapter?

You can connect directly to a DP monitor via a mini DP to DP cable but I'm a little dissapointed that they didn't include a mini DP to DP converter for each of the six outputs since, the only real reason for going to mini DP is the physical size to enable them to fit the six and still have a grill exhaust. Most monitors sold with a DP port will include a DP to DP cable (I know the Dell U2410 I'm looking at getting do) - just means another purchase.

Perhaps I'll just get three mini DP to DP cables to keep things all the same and neat.

EDIT: Saying that, doesn't seem they are that common... Will have to be converters then...

Since all of my monitors have a DP port, I'm going to be picking up Mini-DP > DP cables from MonoPrice.

That's what I did already. Good cables!

But to anyone worrying about the purchase of such cables, don't worry its super cheap.

Yeah I got one from monoprice too, wouldn't say it's super cheap (compared to DVI/VGA, thankfully I only needed one), and the white color goes bad against my monitors (all black) and my case (all black) and my dvi cables (all black) but oh well, it's tucked away behind my desk and I barely see it :D.

So when will we see pre-orders?
