The rollout of the HD 5800 and 5700 series was accompanied
by a ton of hoo-hah over their built-in Eyefi nity multimonitor
display technology, which connects up to three
monitors to a single card—and future iterations will support
up to six! That’s cool, but demonstrations show gamers
playing on nearly bezel-free displays perfectly aligned in a
rectangular grid. It’s impressive, but I don’t see anything like
this happening in my own home anytime soon. Although
fl ight-sim fans might rig up a three-across and one-on-top
display arrangement, I doubt many of us are eager to tile
our mismatched LCDs with their thick bezels into “a large
integrated display surface for the ultimate wide-screen
home theater display,” as ATI enthusiastically suggests.
