Mini displayport to displayport
Mini displayport to HDMI
Mini displayport to DVI

Depending on which inputs your monitors have. Mini displayport to HDMI would be the most universal choice imo.
 
Thats right. From what I have read the GPU only has 2 DAC's which is why the 3rd has to be diplayport. Going from mini displayport to displayport does not require a DAC.

Phew!"

cheers just read the article, 5870 x-fire outperforms it in most tests, wondering whether that might be the better option as i already have a 5870
 
I'm still stuck as to whether to order one of these or two 5870's :( ARGH! What do you guys think?
