Hey guys and gals,

I have a client who owns a Mac Pro (3.5GHz 6-core with 12MB of L3 cache) with the Dual AMD FirePro D700 GPUs with 6GB of GDDR5 VRAM each. This should allow him to run several 4K monitors correct?

If my understanding is correct, I should be able to purchase three 4K televisions, say these:

And via Thunderbolt to HDMI, connect all three to the Mac Pro:

or

Is my understanding of this correct because currently, the Mac Pro trying to run multiple HD monitors is a nightmare where 4K is suppose to be much easier.
