More Information

Hi,
Choice of Asus ATI 3870x2, 1 gig with 4 DVI connectors, or 2 Asus nvidia 8800GT 512meg with two DVI connectors each. Current sale price makes the choice equal, 1 3870x2 = 2 8800GT's.
Want to run 2, 20" at digital 1680x1050 and 2, 24" at 1920x1200 digital.
I would like ease of use and no issues mixing and matching resolutions.
Not running 1 game across all, but mainly running CAD/graphics, one window one each monitor.
Nvidia 680i SLI mobo, 800W SLI PSU.
Would love your inputs.
