Question above. Got my 5970 today. I see many of the people here are using dual link cables for the dvi inputs. If I am going 1680x1050 eyefinity do I need to go out and buy dual link dvi cables also? All I have is the regular ones that come with the monitors. Guess I will try them out and see if they work tonight.
