I keep hearing the term eyefinity. Can someone explain how to achieve eyefinity? I have 3-4 monitors, what else is needed for this? Just a video card or 2 or is there more to it?

Eyefinity allows you to drive up to 6 monitors using a single GPU. You can either run applications which span multiple monitors, or use each monitor separately. Note that you need a dongle if you want to drive more than two monitors from a single Eyefinity-compatible video card. AMD has a list of supported dongles.
Requirements (quoted from AMD's website):
EDIT: Also, be sure to check out the article on Tom's Hardware, AMD's Eyefinity Technology Explained.
Dongles are only necessary if your monitors don't already support DisplayPort, of course. – Shinrai – 2010-09-24T14:13:14.343

If you need 4 monitors and graphic card does not support 4 monitors, but has Display Port - you need to buy MST (Multi Stream Transport) Hub and connect it to display port.

Jason, were you able to find something that worked for you? – rob – 2010-04-17T00:23:25.863
