New video cards, 2 or 3 outputs at a time? (ATI 6450)

Anyone know if one of these chips / cards can output to VGA, HDMI and DVI all at the same time?

http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=193_877&products_id=17409 for example?

I know as of the 5xxx series of ATI cards, the high end models do 3 outputs- because I got a 5850 for precisely this.
I need to run a 30" Dell (DL-DVI or Displayport) plus 2x 24" monitors (happy for one to be a VGA) and it has to be slimline.

Anyone know?
 
I found a solution - gonna leave my nvidia 8400GS in the machine for the 2x24's and then buy an nvidia GT430 - has dual link DVI - should do the job (I bloody hope so)

I did confirm Win 7 64 works fine with 2x 8400GS, hopefully works with an 8400 and a 430. (shame the slimline cards don't have displayport actually - but I guess the HDMI is on the cards specifically for HTPC implimentations)

I assume if I used a HDMI -> DPort adapter, the signal would still be HDMI right? Not capable of 2560x1600 full Dport resolutions due to being through HDMI? So I definitely need to use dual link DVI rather than HDMI -> Dpport for the 30"?
 
yes it is but why not buy amd card already ? it was a waste of electricity and you can get better feature with eyefinity
