AMD has officially lifted the embargo on its latest graphics card technology, Eyefinity. We presented this information earlier this week already, but after discussing it with AMD we decided to retract and hold off for the moment. It has lifted the embargo on some of the information we shared and allow use to talk about Eyefinity, which is the multi-monitor technology we mentioned earlier. ATI Eyefinity enables users to connect up to 6 monitors to a single Radeon HD 5800, with resolutions up to 7680×3200 pixels (!).



It’s not just a technology for physically connecting six monitors to a sole graphics card. The monitors can be used at the same time, not just in windows but also in games and other applications.


ATI Eyefinity will be available with all Radeon HD 5000 graphics cards, where the technology will offer at least three joint monitors and at the most six. The latter was shown at demonstrations earlier this week and with pretty impressive results. Anandtech took some pictures of how World of Warcraft was exposed at 7680×3200 pixels on six 30″ Dell monitors. It did this with an average of 80 fps with a single GPU, which is not just impressive size-wise but also in terms of performance.

Eyefinity has its roots in the mobile segment where OEMs have been requesting more display outputs for extra displays and docking stations. Something AMD’s next generation graphics cards will offer more than plenty.


We will look closer at AMD’s Eyefinity technology in the future and until then we whop that these presentations below will be enough to settle your hunger for the time being.
