At least _my_ AMD-790-GX onboard graphics unit on the already mentionend
Asrock-board works like a charm without any problems whatsoever as a
dual-head-solution with DVI- and VGA-monitor with different resolutions
and refresh rates.

And AMDs "CrossFireX"- or "Hybrid CrossFireX"-concept /-feature is made
for even more than two monitors simultaneously.

I've seen AMD-solutions with six monitors working but have not checked
this personally for myself.
