Features Key features of the Radeon R7 A260
memory bandwidth Rate at which data can be read from or stored in onboard memory
pixel rate Number of pixels a graphics card can render to the screen every second
texture rate Speed at which a graphics card can perform texture mapping
floating point performance How fast the gpu can crunch numbers
shading units Subcomponents of the gpu, these run in parallel to enable fast pixel shading
texture mapping units Built into each gpu, these resize and rotate bitmaps for texturing scenes

A DDR3-2400 Mhz Dual Ranked RAM was used for the APU to make sure it performed at its best.
The second benchmark is also a well known GPGPU software called Sisoft Sandra GPGPU and though here the Maxwell GPU GTX 750 leads the benchmarks the margin is really not that huge.

The most graphics cards you can fit on a motherboard is 4, with the best offering at most 5 outputs per card.
If cost is absolutely not a factor, how do I get enough graphics cards running to generate all of the DIFFERENT screens?

It is hard to determine if this is something that gamers will consider a must-have feature and something that developers will feel needs to be included in their games.
The biggest feature of DirectX 11.1 is that it adds native stereoscopic 3D support, which gives native 11.1 applications support for viewing the content via 3D stereoscopic glasses by default, as it is built-in.

SMX's energy efficiency was achieved by increasing its number of CUDA architecture cores by four times, while reducing the clock speed of each core, power-gating parts of the GPU when idle and maximizing the GPU area devoted to parallel-processing cores instead of control logic.
While that card is the king of gaming (for now), the big daddy of Nvidia Kepler-based GPUs isn't even here yet.
