I'm new to eyefinity and I have a few questions. I have 3 5870's in crossfire I also have 3 Asus 26VH monitors in eyefinity. They are all hooked uyp to one video card 1 hdmi, 1 dvi , 1 display port. My question is this..........Do you think or is it possbile to have these monitors on 3 different cards and if so wouldn't it be better and wouldn't I get more FPS if the monitors were on each card?

Can't I run them on seprate cards but not be in crossfire is that possible? Right now they are in crossfire but if I were to take say 1 monitor in put it on my second grapic card whould it be better outta crossfie then in crossfire?

You need to run all the monitors off the first GPU; this was something I (and several others) wanted to know before EyeFinity was released. You can take the cards out of CrossFireX and run one-card-per-monitor AFAIK, but you can't run EyeFinity like that.
