Introduction
SurroundView is the ATI technology that provides multi-graphics controller display capability for both
the ATI PCIe-based graphics card and the ATI integrated graphics processor (IGP). This document
outlines sample display configurations with SurroundView enabled on the Radeon Xpress 300 ATI
chipset incorporated into the HP dc5750 Business PC. Enabling SurroundView does not impact
display modes (resolution and color depth) or performance. The display mode of each output is
controlled independently by the graphics controller connected to it. The modes listed in the table
below vary for each system configuration and are dependent on monitor capabilities. These values
are the absolute maximum, assuming memory bandwidth is not a limiting factor.
Radeon Xpress 300 Display Configuration
Figure 1. Radeon Xpress 300 Display Configuration
Up to four displays can be connected to a Radeon Xpress 300 system with a single PCIe graphics
card and SurroundView enabled. More than four displays are possible using additional PCI graphics
controllers. The Radeon Xpress 300 supports a Digital Video Interface (DVI) connected to a DVI
monitor, in addition to analog output to a VGA monitor or TV.
