Video Card + Display Advice - going to 3 monitor set-up
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Hi,
I am currently running an Intel Core i5-2500k quad core 3.3Ghz, and an GTX 570 HD Superclocked 1280 MB GDDR5 video card.
Performance wise, my goal is to be able to play BF2 + Borderlands 2 with a three monitor set-up. Practically, I do a fair amount of trading and want to be able to run 5-6 monitors of charts etc.
I am going to swap out the 570 and am considering either the 660ti or the 670 x 2 (i.e. run in SLI) and in particular
1. 660ti - $300 per
2. 670 2gb $375 per
3. 670 4GB superclocked EVGA $434 per.
Any thoughts on the price/performance trade-off on these options?
As well, does anyone have any suggestions re: approximately 24" monitors - both in respect of type (LCD/PLASMA/LED) and manufacturer?
Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated.

Wouldn't the same principal apply to the 680, as well... i.e. tons of models, varying levels of performance?
I'm just looking for some general advice, once I decide 670 vs. 680 vs. 660ti, I will get into the details....
Currently at $300 a pop, the 660ti is where I'm leaning, I am only considering the 670/680 in the event they would future proof me to the point where they might justify the additional cost.
