This feels like deja vu that I have already replied to this. Yes, I am looking forward to seeing the benchmarks. With eyefinity I can use any advantage I can get.!

Hehe, I think the same announcement happens every 6 mths! But with the CPU/GPU link twice as fat, with Ivy bridge processors due as well, I feel next yr will be a real leap in performance!

Too bad Radeon drivers are historically terrible.

That used to be true .. but no so much in the last several years.

Really ? Is this true for Windows only, or also for Mac OS and GNU/Linux ? I'm still skeptical about their GNU/Linux drivers.

They're still far more problematic than nVidia drivers, especially in Linux.
