This is perfect for if you're planning to use 3 monitors in a multi monitor setup! Though each of your monitors should support one of VGA, DVI or HDMI ports at the least. If you have an SLI motherboard, you can go for six monitors!

AMD doesn't offer SLI, it offers a similar technology called CrossFire. It also doesn't work that way. You need to have a DisplayPort connection to actually get the 3+ monitors to show up. Also, this card has VGA, HDMI and DVI in the back and will probably not be able to support 3 monitors.

"Scalable Link Interface (SLI) is a brand name for a multi-GPU solution developed by NVIDIA for linking two or more video cards together to produce a single output". While, "ATI CrossFire (also known as CrossFireX) is a brand name for ATI Technologies' multi-GPU solution". The brand of processor has nothing to do with the type of mutli-GPU setup you choose, thus you can have either SLI or CrossFire on a motherboard featuring an AMD or Intel processor unless something has drastically changed that I haven't noticed.

Anyone know what kind of power supply you need for this card? Can't find it anywhere.

Most modern power supplies will support this card. It's pretty low in power consumption. How do I know? It doesn't have any PCI-E power connectors nor does it have a huge fan cooling it down.

I assumed this card was going to be better than the Radeon HD 2900 but it's not according the passmark website... I'm currently looking at a video card for FFXIV... Minimum requirement says Radeon HD 2900 512MB :/

For video cards you should always look at the 2nd number for the general performance range. Normally 2 being lowest, 4 being mainstream, 6 for "gamers" and 8 for enthusiast.

The 1st number indicates what series it is. Each release gets a new series number.

So this card is a mainstream 5000 series card.

A Radeon HD 2900 is an enthusiast 2000 series card.
