F#%K all people who before Eyefinity became available and were happy on one monitor will now be buying 3 monitors.

Just because there will be some tiny percent who do, doesn't mean that pointing out how irrelevant Eyefinity will be to 99% of users is not accurate.

Also your strange attempt to segment the market into Eyefinity multi-monitor buyers and 15 LCD buyers is ridiculous.

If the 5870 offers the same price/performance benefit over the GT300 that the 4870 did to the GT200, then that is likely my next card, but no way in hell will I be wasting my time on that marketing gimmick now known as Eyefinity.

Power consumption: Seriously?
3 monitors vs 1, yep.

Bezel space: You choose an odd x odd grid of monitors so your center piece is a monitor and not a bezel. Simple enough?
LOL. No. I don't waste my money to be slave to the technology. It has to be compelling to me, not the other way around.
