1248501 2011-12-13 23:59:00 Hi All,

I'm looking for a 6 Head Graphics Card. After a little research, I've found that ATI have the Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 Edition which has 6x mini display output ports.
Any ideas where I can get this card? Any suggestions/recommendations?

Thanks

just in case....
read the fine print..there may be some gotchya's to watch for
on some of the option I looked at,
I found the multiple outputs require NATIVE display port monitors (good luck finding one) . Display port adaptors would not allow 4 simultaneous video outputs, even though this was never mentioned in the doc's of one of the options I tried.

If not gaming or anything, and don't need full HD, then maybe you could just get some USB-VGA or USB-DVI adapters.
