I am thinking of building a new machine for high end gaming using perhaps an
Asus P5ND2-SLI motherboard and dual Asus EN6800GT video cards. This will
supply 4 DVI adapters and should support as many as 4 LCD displays, correct?
Is it possible to facilitate surround gaming - similar to the Matrox
Parhelia - with this setup? An example is on the Matrox website at
http://www.matrox.com/mga/3d_gaming/enhanced_games/media/nascar/nascar_L_05.jpg

Thanks for any advice in advance.

The Nvidia cards will NOT span four monitors with one image.

gaming is a different story but desk tops and junk like that will span
around 12 monitors or so.
