So most ppl that run multi monitor setups like 3 screens 1080p 5760x1080 res or the 5760x1200.

What gpu's are you using with how much vram?

In what games on 5760x1080 are you running low on vram or do you ever?

I am getting a 3 monitor eyefinity setup and i will run a 7970 in crossfire with a r9-280x and it has 3gb vram so my question is as my ppl run the 3 monitor setup with nvidia cards that are 2gb do you ever get bottlenecked cos the vram?

How much vram does b3/bf4 use up in 5760x1080 res?

So will 3gb of vram be enough for games in 5760x1080 with 7970 sli or as i will be with 7970 and r9-280x that is basicly the same as a 7970 little higher clocked.

Please leave your opinions what cards you run in your eyefinity/surrond setup and what fps etc

depends on the game and what levels of MSAA you want to run... but things like farcry and crysis will use up MORE than 3gb of VRAM when you get up into the 4x or 8x msaa. I believe BF4 uses about 3gb if you truly want to play on MAX everything

Yea mostly without msaa since i do it already i dont notice much diffetent between 4x or 8x or off anyways everything ultra except aa on 1080p on single 7970 avg 86 fps so will 5760x1080 with 7970 ghz crossfire be good in most games with avg fps on 60 with no aa?
