1. AMD Eyefinity technology works with games that support non-standard aspect ratios, which is required for spanning
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. AMD Eyefinity technology can support up
to 6 displays using a single enabled AMD Radeon™ GPU with Windows Vista® or Windows® 7 operating
systems – the number of displays may vary by system design and you should confirm exact specifications with the
applicable manufacturer before purchase. SLS (“Single Large Surface”) functionality requires an identical display
resolution on all configured displays.
2. AMD HD3D is a technology designed to enable stereoscopic 3D support in games, movies and/or photos. Additional
hardware (e.g. 3D enabled panels, 3D-enabled glasses/emitter, Blu-ray 3D drive) and/or software (e.g. Blu-ray 3D
discs, 3D middleware, games) are required for the enablement of stereoscopic 3D. 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.
3. AMD App Acceleration is a set of technologies designed to improve video quality and enhance application
performance. Full enablement of some features requires support for OpenCL™ or DirectCompute (including
AMD’s Universal Video Decoder (UVD)). Not all products have all features and full enablement of some capabilities and
may require complementary products.
