DisplayPort 1.2 on new FirePro cards means accurate color, 4k displays, fewer ports, true 3D

New to the FirePro V5900 and FirePro V7900 is support for DisplayPort 1.2 that increase data transfer to 5.4Gbps High Bit Rate 2 (HBR2) mode, so you can drive 4K x 2K display with 30 bits per pixel over a single cable. With AMD’s HD3D 3D stereoscopy standard and DisplayPort 1.2,  3D monitors can go beyond full HD while maintaining a true 120Hz refresh rate (more bandwidth than either HDMI1.4a or DL-DVI so you could for example, play Blu-Ray 3D in a window).

Using a DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Stream Transport (MST) hub, another advantage is that an Eyefinity-enabled card will be able to drive up to six HD resolution displays from just two DisplayPort outputs. So space constrained cards, will no longer be Eyefinity-constrained (e.g. laptops).
