Are you rich? If so do you feel that one or two or even three monitors on your gaming PC set up is not enough? How do you feel about SIX monitors running your PC game? Better still, how about 24 FREAKING PC MONITORS? Think it's impossible? AMD says, "Nope, just really expensive". This week the PC processor and graphics chip maker showed off their upcoming ATI Radeon Eyefinity technology that will be put into their next-generation graphics chip this fall.

Simply put, just one graphics card with this technology will be enough to power up to six monitors at the same time. If you have four ATI graphics cards in CrossFire set-up . . . you can do the math. Yep, that means support for up to 24 PC monitors at once. HardOCP seemed very impressed with the technology at AMD's press event. We can't wait to see someone set this kind of monitor set up at a future QuakeCon.
