Specialized graphics manufacturer Matrox Graphics introduced on Monday a graphics card that's capable of simultaneously supporting eight displays.
The Matrox M9188 PCIe x16 Octal graphics card can support eight DisplayPort or DVI Single-Link outputs from a single workstation. The card offers 2GB of memory, resolutions of up to 2560x1600 per output and several modes -- independent or stretched desktop modes -- for use in energy, transportation, process control, financial, and other mission-critical industries.
Or, you know, your basement, if you're into that kind of thing.
The card can be combined with a second M9188 to drive up to 16 displays from a single workstation.
The M9188 offers support for Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, XP and Server 2003/2008, as well as Linux.
