1) how much power does a setup need with 460s in sli maxed out on overclock (air) im guessin 1k would be more than enough

2) anyone know how 2 gtx 480s in sli work with 3 monitors??

3)is the msi cyclone basically the best cooled one out there at this time?

4)and how do i find the resolution of a triple monitor setup (3x 1920x1080)

2) i guess the same as any other card but the 1gig of memory would be the biggest part i think there coming out with a 2g model and from what i hear the memory is what makes cards better on multi screens.

3) the cyclone is getting great reviews and can be overclocked very high

1). Since people have done 850w with dual 480's you could probably run a 750w or maybe even a 650. I would stick to a 750w minimum though.

2).They work with latest 256 driver.

3)I dunno about cooling on the msi's

4)If you are running a horizontal setup it is ((1920)x3) x 1080 = 5760 x 1080
