Surround system with a 2,000 budet?

bubbleradish · May 2, 2014

Is it possible to configure a $2,000 dollar computer that can run at medium or ultra with 3 monitors.
Im aware that its extremely challenging to get a build that costs 2,000 that can run Nvidia Surround but i am hoping that it is possible. Please include the monitors in the builds and i might set up sli in the future. No need for a os because i have that covered and you can go mayybbee $200 over the original budget.
Thanks!

This will get you there. You'll get Ultra with this in most games. Had to go over budget a little, but it'll be worth it, as you already have SLI in it

Yep - you spend a lot on the graphics card.

3 monitors will cost you $450 - leaves $1550 - say 3 x Asus VS247HR

Have a look at - http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/build-your-own-gaming-pc,3766.html $1700

Get a $50 case (save $50), $20 DVD drive (save $30), no SSD (save $90) - gets you close enough
