Corsair 900D chassis
Sabertooth Z77
Intel I7 3770K 3.70GHz
16GB's of Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz
2 Nvidia Geforce GTX 680's
120GB SSD
2TB HDD's RAID 0
250GB Samsung SSD
Corsair 1000W PSU
H80 CPU watercooler
Nvidia surround display

I can still play most games on medium/ high settings but there are a lot of games now that I can't play on all 3 of my displays.

A lot of games are asking for 4gb of Vram now.
I've got 2 Gtx 680's that are only 2gb cards.
and with the added monitors "4 total" how do you suppose this is going to work out for those of us with surround displays?

Would a 6GB variant of the 980 work? Assuming such a thing exists.

I would say nothing really, just lower your expectations. You cant expect to be maxing games at 5760x1080 on cards that are near 3yrs old at this point.

If you had to upgrade, the graphics, everything else is more than adequate and wont bottleneck.
