Need some advice

[WarmZie]

Im thinking about getting a triple monitor setup.

My current setup is:

Asus Sabertooth p67

2600k

8GB 1600mHz

Asus gtx560 1gb

120gb SSD

1tb storage drive

I was wondering what would be better.

getting another 560 or getting 1 6950 2gb

Are you gonna be gaming at 5760*1080 or is it for productivity?

I will be gaming at 5760*1080

I'd say get a second 560.

At that resolution another 560 won't help if you want AA, textures and such turned up pretty high.

so then i guess 6950 now would be better.

I have a mate that is running a triple monitor setup on a single 6950

A 6950 will run 3 monitors in eyefinity - 2 off of the 2*DVI, for the third you will need an active displayport adapter DVI -> DP or active displayport adapter DVI -> mDP depending on the adapters that come with your card, to connect the mini displayport on the 6950 to your DVI monitor. (this is assuming that you are running 3 DVI monitors). The only 6950 that natively supports 3*DVI monitors is the Sapphire Flex edition 6950.

I'm running an MSI 6950 TF3 with triple monitors atm. I don't game much, have only really played COD Black Ops, played fine, but as I said, don't really game much atm.

Hardly surprising - if they don't fold well you don't wanna know.
