I want to buy a 7990 to replace my aging 2 590's. I run with 3 dell 2407's none of which has a display port. How do I connect them all to the 7990? I currently use surround vision on the 590's, so I'd like to use eyefinity on the 7990.

Also, I currently mine on the 590's and I'm sure a single 7990 will out strip them both easily in term of performance, but I've heard a lot about throttling on the AMD cards. Will they throttle if I run the fan at 100% all the time, or would I need to do LtMatt's bios update to avoid any issues here?

Assumiung your Dell's have DisplayPort inputs, buy 3 of these http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CB-089-OK

I didn't see any throttling with or without Matt's bios, but i have my case open atm.

Be warned the fans on 100% is very loud (but I have two cards).
