It's upgrade time, I'd like some advice on a future BUDGET eyefinity setup.
I already have a 20" Asus vh202t-p.
I am looking to get an HD 6850 (that's the highest my budget will allow) and a second monitor in the next 30days (the third one will have to wait). Current budget: $360.
Should I:
1. Stick with 20" monitors and get two extra Asus vh202t-p's (or other 20" monitors: dell, acer...) for a 4800x900 setup? I don't mind the bezel difference.
2. or Attempt a 23" setup and get an Asus vh236h now, 2 extra ones later for a 5670x1080? I'd have to ditch my current monitor.
3. or Attempt a 20"-23"-20" setup at 4800x900 and get the 23" now and an extra 20" later.
Obviously bigger res monitors are better but is 5670x1080 worth the extra cash knowing that:
1. A single HD 6850 might not able be to handle that much resolution in current games.
2. 20" monitors are selling for dirt cheap.
Current system:
CPU: Core i3-530 at @ 3.5ghz
Mobo: Asus p7-h55 m-pro
RAM: 4GB DDR3 @ 1600mhz
