Engadget posted an article with the first sighting of the Radeon HD 6990. The info and images come courtesy of 4Gamer.net. The card does appear to support 5x1 output with four Mini-DP and one DL-DVI. I wish the card had 6xMini-DP, as I have my Eyefinity6 card running Mini-DP to my 5x1-P, and Mini-DP > HDMI to my HDTV.

A bit late on this one as well. Thanks to members ViciousXUSMC and GeneralAdmission, the indie arcade flight sim Dogfighter now works in Eyefinity/Surround. Thanks to Vicious and GA for their lobbying efforts, and thanks to Black Water Studios for putting in the effort to patch the game.

A 21:9 display offers a 2.33:1 aspect, and is closer to to the "cinematic" movie aspect ratio of 2.78:1. This will result in lower black bars for movie watching. It also provides a wider aspect for gaming.

Even if you aren't a fan of multi-monitor gaming (Eyefinity & Surround), the work of the WSGF helps to ensure that games on these single ultra-wide monitors would be Hor+. It's aspect ratio is only slightly narrower than a 5x1-P Eyefinity setup of 2.8:1.
