GPU Selection Question

[tlane09]

I'm building a new computer and I'm trying to decide what graphic(s) cards I need.

What I want to do is play Battlefield 3 and Skyrim on a 5 portrait monitor setup. (5400x1920 resolution)

I want to be able to play them on the highest setting while maintaining at least 35+ fps.

My budget for the cards is $1000. So what card(s) do you guys think I need to buy to be able to accomplish this?



Thanks in advance for the help.

Do you think AMD's upcoming Radeon HD 7990 6GB dual-GPU card would be up to the task?

Two of those card you will be able to run 5 to 6 monitors with out any problems. Just read up on eyefinity it will help you and make sure you have a good PSU that can handle the two cards.

Make sure you get either a Corsair, Antec, Seasonic, XFX, Siver Stone, and some models of OCZ brands. To be on the safe side 850w and up. Good luck to you.
