Multiple Outputs

I have just recently commissioned a catalyst system with 2 machines consisting of the following:

quad core 2.8
3 120g SSDs
Nvidia Quadrafx 4000
1 tripplehead2go
3 matrox Convertdvi to get genlocked dvi.

Both machines are running 3 1920x1080 displays without a hitch and are synced together. I can get 1 complete set of 1920x1080 with no frame drop and 2 sets of 720p with no frame drop. Plus some additional graphics and Other movies at times.

One thing to note, the quadrafx 4000 will only output dual link with a high enough res on the dvi output only.the display port will only go to 2500 ish pixels wide, not the 3840 needed for 2 x 1920 outputs needed with a triple head. Or you could only get that 4 way box mentioned above to work on that card and probably won't get the second port to work at all.

The single 20k with a super wide lense Is terrible looking. Great for easy and fast setup, but this would highly disappoint your client I would guarantee you.

I would definitely say use at least 2 servers. One can't do all that. And more is better depending on what your layering needs are.

The Nvidia Quadro cannot output anything higher then 2560x1600 out the display port, so it is unable to do more then 1 4k x 4k. I also highly doubt outputting 4k x 4k will allow any left over power to put out anything on the display port, maybe just another 1080p display at most...
