Up and running in crossfire and eyefinity with a core i7 930, EVGA X58 Micro ATX, 6gb Corsair Dominator DDR3 and Corair 850HX.

Combined total resolution of 5760x1080. Cards have been ROCK solid, absolutely no problems. Really impressed with ATI this time around.

Would absolutely consider buying again. I am not a fanboi, had SLI GTX285's in my rig before this one.

This is actually my second card, and it's sitting in the box. My motherboard doesn't support two cards at PCIe x16. When I plug in the second one, I'm limited to x8, resulting in a net loss of frames, from 70-80 FPS to 40-50 FPS. Therefore I'm holding on to it until I upgrade my MoBo.

But the Eyefinity is fantastic; when I first tried gaming across three screens, I got headaches. Now when I try to game on a single display, I feel like I'm wearing blinders.

Great card! Not thrilled with ATI's drivers, but if you're reading this review, you are probably already aware of that...

I got this card to replace my old 8800 GT (R.I.P), all the games run flawlessly, although every once in a while i get a grey screen but nothing to worry about 'cause that happens with any ATI card or Nvidia in demanding games like bad company 2 , it's been 9 months running games with it, i'm very happy, it's a nice card, go for it...
