Gigabyte X58-USB3 question

[seanny]

I currently have 2 GTS 450's in SLI.I wanted to upgrade to 2x GTX 590's.Will my motherboard support it,and will it fit?Mobo is a Gigabyte X58-USB3.

If it can run the 450's in SLi then why wouldn't it run a pair of 590's? I don't know why you would want to SLi a pair of 590's but it's your money.

Youd Be Better Off SLIing A Pair Of GTX570s Or Better Yet Since SLI/Crossfire Is Overated For Most Situations Why Not A Single GTX580 Or A Single GTX590??

Oh,sorry...I forgot to say I am running 3 Acer 27 inch 3d monitors also.

In That Case Id Prolly Be A Good Solution But Three Cards Would Be A Sufficiant And Cheaper Solution

Out Of Curiosity, Im Curious As To Weather You Could Pair A GTX580 And An GTX590, Then You Would Have A Tri-Sli Setup Using Just Two Slots (Considering A GTX590 Is Basically Just A GTX580 x2)

The last I recall seeing, 4-way GPU's still had terrible scaling issues. I would advise that you really hunt out any and all reviews of 4- GPU's before splurging out the cash.

Thats Basically What I Was Trying To Put Forth (With Ofcourse Leeway For Opinions) A Tri-SLI Setup Would Be A Better Solution And Had The Best Balance According To Maximum PC
