First, the horizontal resolution will actually be 7680.

Second, if you purchase the Eyefinity Edition which has 6 MiniDisplayPort outputs, then all you would need is either 1 additional MiniDP-to-DP adapter dongle or purchase DP-to-MiniDP cables from a reseller such as Monoprice.com

Simply hook up two of the u2711's with Duel-Link DVI and the other with a DP cable. No Adapters needed.

Yeah do it, I've been looking at that monitor for a while now (I just cant justify buying 3 monitors that cost more than my computer it's self... oh wait, my monitors already exceed that... but I have 5 of them. *Shrug*). I wanna know how you like 'em cuz I might make another surround rig, powering those.
