[AT] Beginnings of the Holodeck: AMD's DX11 GPU, Eyefinity and 6 Display Outputs

Driving all of this is AMD's next-generation GPU, which will be announced later this month. I didn't leave out any letters, there's a single GPU driving all of these panels. The actual resolution being rendered at is 7680 x 3200; WoW got over 80 fps with the details maxed. This is the successor to the RV770. We can't talk specs but at today's AMD press conference two details are public: over 2 billion transistors and over 2 TFLOPs of performance. As expected, but nice to know regardless.

The technology being demonstrated here is called Eyefinity and it actually all started in notebooks.

I hate the spaces in between, maybe OLED will solve this problem.

Cool, but I have no interest until they can make the multiple panels fit together without seams. An inch of black border between each set of panels would completely destroy the immersion effect they are trying to achieve.

You can take apart the screens and put them really close to each other with custom mount.... I hate those gaps... THEY ARE DRIVING ME NUTS!

Yes, especially the horizontal border between the top and bottom monitors. The vertical divisions between a three-wide monitor setup wouldn't bother me so much. But that horizontal black gap with the stacked monitors just ruins the effect, IMO. Especially for someone playing an FPS... it's pretty much right where the cross hairs would be. Heck, you can even see in the picture on the OP the black gap running right through the player character.
