I have purchased one of these MST hubs from Amazon here in the US.
http://www.amazon.com/Club-CSV-5300-Sen ... ds=mst+hub
I have 3x 2560x1700 eDP LCDs. Once I get everything soldered together next week I will be testing these on a GTX 630, GTX 760 4 GB, and I have 2 intel mobos with built-in DP to test with as well.
The GTX 630 has dual DP so I should be able to activate 3 display surround on it for testing using the MST hub. I am mainly interested in testing portrait mode as it would allow for 4k/5k resolution video and games.
If the testing goes well then I might go SLI for surround gaming. (or wait for faster GPUs to run 5k resolution)

That will be awesome if you have those chrome book pixel displays working. Unfortunately, I don't think there's enough bandwidth to run all 3 on the mst hub. Maybe two, but not three.

I have verified that I can run 2 of these displays from the Club 3D MST. It seems like it will work with any DP 1.1 monitors, even if they have funny resolutions.
However I have not been able to get my third display working yet so the surround testing will have to come later, but the adapter works.
However I am seeing that issue where the picture only sometimes comes on, and it goes off at reboot.
So far I have only tested the adapter with these 2 nvidia cards. I will test on some intel Sandy Bridge/Ivy Bridge/Haswell graphics soon.
Unplugging the adapter from the PC and power then re-inserting will fix it when the picture doesn't come on, so my unit might also need that firmware upgrade.
Each display was running at the full 2560x1700 resolution at 60 Hz when both were connected to the adapter.
Also, that seller on Amazon does include a US plug adapter with the kit so you can use it out of the box in the US without hunting down the right power cord.
