Hey,

I plan on buying a 7970 next week and one of my choices has 2x dvi, 1x hdmi and 1x displayport. I know that in my current card (6870) the hdmi port cannot be used if both dvi ports are being used, has this changed with the newer cards? Will I be able to use the hdmi port alongside the 2 dvi and displayport? I will be running 4 monitors with it.

This is the card in question, it's not my first choice but I may have to go for it if the other one isn't in stock.
