I have two monitors + an LCD TV and an LCD projector. I just ordered a 5770 and have two questions.

1. Does it handle 3 or 4 monitors connected at once?

2. I have calibrated my screens with Spyder3. Will it handle seperate LUTs/ICC profiles loaded for each display?
 
Damn good questions. [H] has been running u2410's which are wide gamut so I'm curious at how they approached the color problem.
 
It can only handle 3 monitors at once. Either DP/DVI/DVI, or DP/DVI/HDMI

I don't know too much about color profiling really, but on my x1800 this is all handled by Vista's built in Display Settings, under advanced/color management. You select the monitor and there is a window with color profiles to choose from, nothing in ATI's CCC mentioned color profiles, but does have an option to auto-detect the monitors EDID to set the monitor color temperature. If anyone has eyefinity with a single large surface desktop it would be easy to find out. Just open up that dialog and see if there's 3 displays, or if Eyefinity has tricked it into thinking there's only one monitor. I would imagine eyefinity will work automagically with the pre-configured icc profile from the displays manager as long as all 3 are there.
 
I installed the 5770 this morning and can confirm that I am infact running two different ICC profiles for my two Dell monitors. Dual screen desktop is awesome btw :)
