Hello, I am saving up to buy three monitors so I can play games in 5760 x 1080 resolution. I just bought the second monitor and tried to play a game in 3840 x 1080, and I had some frame lag. This concerned me because my GPU, ASUS HD7850, can usually run any game on max settings at 60 fps.

When I get my third monitor, how will the performance be?
Should I buy a second ASUS HD7850, and run them in crossfire?
Or should I just buy a new, more powerful card?

Thanks!
