Hey guys. I just needed some advice. I really want to upgrade my gpu's. I currently have 2 2GB EVGA GTX 550ti's SLI. My main use for the card is gaming. I'm not really current with PC games, but I would like to be able to play pretty much anything on the highest settings or as close as possible. I also plan on upgrading to a 3 monitor setup in the next year or so, so this upgrade should cover that. My budget is around $350. is any of this even possible? Thank you in advance for your help!

My current setup:
i5-2400
Intel DP67BG MB
2-2GB EVGA 550ti
Corsair RM750 PSU
12 GB corsair vengeance RAM

I would say the only two cards that can give a run 770's money at 340 is sli 650 ti boost. I think the performance is about even between sli 650 ti boost and 770. In that case, it kind of defeats the purpose, so just go gtx 770.

Thanks for the response. I was looking at the 770's. Is that the best card in my price range? I know I have nvidia cards now, but i'm not against getting amd. Also, will I see a huge difference between my 2 cards vs 1 770?

One more question. I have read that the 2gb 770 might have troubles with a 3 monitor setup for gaming. If this is the case is there a card I should save up for that would be able to handle 5760x1080 a bit better without going TOO far over budget? or would the 770 be fine?

Short answer yes. I wont expect you to max everything in that resolution, but definitely playable from medium to high settings on every game.
