GTX580 SLI Eyefinity What's Needed?

[jonlewis]

I've read many forums but a lot of the information seems confusing and usually involves ATI graphic cards - I am new to this and I am hoping somebody can break down exactly what is needed when it comes to the monitors and the various cables.

I currently have i72600k with duel GTX580's (Win7) not sure if you need any other info? I have a single ASUS 25inch LED Monitor and i am about to pull the trigger on 2 more - What else do i need to purchase and will i be missing anything else?

Thanks in advance

Jon

Well Jon for Eyefinity you'll need at least one AMD card...

I'll assume you mean nVidia surround...And for that you'll need 2 more monitors and a few DVI cables
