3 out of 5 eggsNice but tainted by lack of information

Pros: Video looks acceptable so far. (have not tested graphic intensive apps though). Multiple outputs work on Linux with the fglrx driver from AMD.

Cons: Read: Only 2 analog outputs (VGA) are supported. So if you connect mini display port to VGA adapters or variations thereof, only 2 VGA devices will work. The rest have to be digital. I verified this on the AMD web site (after spending a long time researching the issue) where this information was buried in an obscure location. For this reason I am only giving it 3 eggs.

Other Thoughts: I feel the manufacturer should be forthcoming with important information about their products. At least to me this information is important because we have to consider the cost of switching out out analog displays if we use this card. (The cost is multiplied because we would be using many of these cards).

5 out of 5 eggsWorks as expected

Pros: Does drive all monitors using 4 active adapters and the two included passive adapters. Performance is great

Cons: Eyefinity support is a bit weird when you have 12 displays

Other Thoughts: We just had a custom build where we have two of these in a PC to drive 12 17" monitors. One of the adapters is not working so we have 11 displays right now but they're working well. Will work towards an 18 display setup with a third card...

5 out of 5 eggsproper research

Pros: With proper research, anyone will see that you need dongles to run all 6 monitors with this gpu.
www.amd.com/eyefinity
left side click on hardware and software
click on compatible hardware
and you get this

http://support.amd.com/us/eyefinity/Pages/eyefinity-dongles.aspx

You can see it states the follow
"To enable support for more than 2 monitors, “active” DisplayPort™ adapters/dongles are required (or monitors with direct DisplayPort™ connectivity must be used)."

To not even attempt to figure out how a setup is going to work before buying hardware is just ignorant.
Yes it's not stated on newegg that this gpu needs dongles, but they don't have to, they're selling a product, it's not theirs, they don't support it, AMD does.
If you don't check the specs and information from the manufacture, it's your own fault if you have problems.

Cons: Depending on setup driver stability can be a pain.
