Hi
I've got a 22" 1680x1050 and two more are in the post, along with a Gigabyte GA-MA69G-S3H motherboard featuring AMD's 690G chipset, which according to Wikipedia can power 4 screens (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATI_Hybrid_Graphics#SurroundView).
The details on this surroundview technology seem rather sketchy online, but the crux of it is that if I buy the right ATI graphic cards (looks like I'll need another 2 unless I can find one with dual VGA that supports this tech) I'll be able to harness the integrated and discrete GPUs to power my 3 displays. Starting to think this route is alot of hassle; a Matrox card to support upto 4 cards for ~£125 w/ cables off eBay.
Anyway, I was hoping you could shed some light as to what card's support this technology; can I use any ATI cards?

Looks like pretty standard stuff to me. You should be able to run 2 monitors off the motherboard's 2 video ports, and another 2 monitors off any ordinary dual-output PCIe X16 video card.
