With as much beefcake fill rate that the new nvidia card can push why didnt they include a third ramdac for Surrouind gaming? Is ATI going to follow the Same route? I would buy a third monitor in a heartbeat if I could Use it. Can you imagine running your favorite FPS game with three monitors/LCD's. The NV40 has the Juice to do it but they didnt include support for 3rd head. I hope ATI decides to go with a 3 head design, I guess will have to wait and see.

I don't care how newbie you are, that's a GREAT idea! Any manufacturers out there? I'd buy one!
 
IIRC, I believe the games have to support that feature as well.
 
Those quad R300 pics were nice. They sell that one at newegg?

The developers will never add three head support into the games unless a graphics card with substancial market share includes 3 ramdacs. "If you build it they will come"

I think the card is priced at either 6000 bucks or in the 20000buck range I forget, but I think you can't just buy the card anyway
