Would the below setup be possible from this card http://www.asus.com/Graphics_Cards/AMD_Series/EAH6950_DCII2DI4S1GD5/ ?


EDIT: The 27" monitor run from displayport would not have native displayport support but would use an active displayport to dual link dvi adapter.

The card has 4x displayport outputs
1x dual link dvi
1x single link dvi

I have the card already and was at first planning to run a "standard" 3x2 1920x1080 setup. The info from AMD/Asus what kind of setups are possible is very unclear to me.

I'm mostly worried about whether the total resolution would be too high. If no one knows I may test it and let you know if it worked.

ps. No it won't be for gaming but I don't know where else to ask :S

Eyefinity doesn't support running in that configuration, the only 6 display mode is supports is 3x2, you might still be able to use the side monitors as extended desktops but not as part of one large desktop.

Ok thank you. Anyone else know if I can run it like this then with the 4 middle monitors in eyefinity and the 2 side monitors as extended desktops? Or maybe just all 6 monitors as independed desktops?

i think 2x2 would run.

if you put the 23" monitor via Single Link DVI then that should work. theoretically.
