Footnotes
1. AMD Eyefinity technology works with games that support non-standard aspect ratios, which is required for panning across multiple displays. To enable
more than two displays, additional panels with native DisplayPort™ connectors, and/or DisplayPort™ compliant active adapters to convert your monitor’s
native input to your cards DisplayPort™ or Mini-DisplayPort™ connector(s), are required. Support for six simultaneous displays may require
complementary products compatible with DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport. Maximum number of configured displays may vary - check with your
component or system manufacturer for specific model capabilities and supported technologies. SLS (“Single Large Surface”) functionality requires an
identical display resolution on all configured displays.
2. AMD CrossFireX™ technology requires an AMD CrossFireX™ Ready motherboard, an AMD CrossFireX™ Bridge Interconnect (for each additional graphics
card) and may require a specialized power supply.
3. AMD HD3D is a technology designed to enable stereoscopic 3D support in games, movies and/or photos. Requires 3D stereo drivers, glasses, and
display. Not all features may be supported on all components or systems – check with your component or system manufacturer for specific model
capabilities and supported technologies. A list of supported stereoscopic 3D hardware is available at http://www.amd.com/HD3D.
4. As of March 25, 2011, the AMD Radeon™ HD 6990 scores X3303 in 3DMark® 11, the highest single graphics card score achieved to date.
