Hello all,
I want to run 3x23" monitors mostly for work and also enjoy gaming on a basis of 60/40.
My PC is mostly dedicated to work, running multiple 5-6 VirtualMachines so I have 5 hard drives, two different raid setup, 24 gigs of ram and I7 920. My current video card is GTX275 with two monitors and in my box, I cant have a bigger card than this one mostly because I have many hard drives and the GTX size is about limit without changing the enclosure. I may change it if really necessary. My Power Supply is Corsair 750 watts.
I want a third monitor so I am seeking different advices mostly because I simply cant make up my mind. Money is not an issue if kept reasonable. Wont go with the latest 900$ Radeon.
It looks like HD Radeon has a serious advantage over GTX cards which needs to be SLI to get more than two monitors but I am very satisfied with GTX since years. I remember more than 5 years ago thinking I would never go with ATi anymore but things may have changed.
GTX SLI or a single HD Radeon card. Cant make up my mind.
When I run games, I enjoy racing series like NFS, Flight Sim, Skyrim like games once in a while but no Battelfield or Masse effect game types. So what are your suggestions if I want to decently play these type of games with 3 monitors?
I know it may been asked a thousand times in different flavors but reading the subject for weeks, I still cant decide. So I think I need advices knowing my needs with my current setup.
Thanks all
