Q: With MacBooks Retina 13" can you connect two external monitors with resolution each 2560x1600?

I'm not talking about Thunderbolt displays, but other brands like ASUS, LG, SAMSUNG, etc.

Has anyone tested?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

You can connect two displays to the two Thunderbolt ports with appropriate Mini DisplayPort cables or adapters.
<http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/>
"Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to 2560 by 1600 pixels on up to two external displays"

If the display supports HDMI, you could connect one to the computer's HDMI port, but not at 60Hz.
"Support for 3840-by-2160 resolution at 30Hz"
