Yep, now I see about the FM2....

Any other suggestions on building a triple headed system?

I was going to use a passively cool (fanless) ATI video card
and drive monitor #1 and #2 off of that (one HDMI the other
off the secondary port on the ATI video card. And then
use the video port on the workstation mobo (ati-gigabyte)
for the #3 monitor. Anyone built a gentoo system like that?

I do not need blazing graphics on #monitor2 or #monitor 3,
just a normal 1080p video screen, all off of one system.

Any other ideas (suggestions) how to best build a triple head Gentoo
workstation are of keen interest...
