hey guys, so ya i won the 2500 dollar build. i got her up and running recently but i need some advice on choosing a monitor or 2. basically what im looking for are just ideas since i wont be shopping till around xmas.

this will be used for gaming!

for anyone who doesn't know my pc has 3 4890s so let hear how i can get the most out of them!

for starters let me give u some of my ideas and what restrictions i'll have budget wise.

current monitor and res: [url=http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16824179014][/url] 1280x1040

budget: is $250 max

idea 1: one ~20 something inch w/ the highest res i can find (1900 x 1200 atleast)

idea 2: buy 2 more monitors like the 19 i have now and run them w/ the desktop expanded across them (sorry dont know a better way to describe it). up side to this idea is price, i picked up my 19 from an ebay seller who seems to sell these fairly regularly, he is also local and i can pick it up instead of paying for shipping (I PAID ONLY 60 DOLLARS FOR THIS MONITOR, so i can assume that i would come in under budget if i pick up 2 more at about the same price.)

i have a question on this idea aswell, would i disable crossfire to run the 3 monitors?


So what do you guys think? i dont think ill be able to push the limits of this system but im sure gona try!


ps, just want to send a shout out to the ppl at toms for doing the give away! thanks guys!!!
