How is my graphics card if I want to use 3 monitors together for gaming?

I have a 670 FTW .

Also how would games play using all 3 monitors if I was to get a 2nd 670 FTW?

I sort of wished I would have bought the 680 now.

I did just buy the card less then a month ago, do you think I could use EVGA's step up program for the 680?
How will the 670 FTW work with just one when it comes to 2 monitors? I'm looking at getting a 2nd monitor till I have funds to get a 2nd graphics card to Sli with and then can use 3 monitors



Answer
2 Monitors on a single 670 may be fine. It won't give you great performance on both, but medium. But as you probably know, 2 over-clocked 670's are almost the same as 2 regular 680's, and since 2 680's work well with tri-monitor setups, you should be fine with 2 670's. I would'nt personally bother with the step-up program and all that.

If you can, you might just want to return the 670 and buy a 690 when you save up instead of 2 670's. That would be pure awesomeness.

Hope this helps

How can i get world of warcraft to run across 3 monitors at a resolution of 4960x1600?

I have 3 monitors setup in PLP (20x30x20) configuration... 2 Dell 2007FPb's flanking a Dell U3011. The combined resolution is 4960x1600. I would like to play World of Warcraft across all monitors. Can anyone help set this up?
System Specs:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64
CPU: Intel Core i7 960
GPU:2x Geforce GTX 570's in SLI.
Motherboard: EVGA x58 SLI LE
RAM: 12GB's of DDR3 1600.



Answer
Unfortunately, Nvidia's Surround feature doesn't support multiple monitors with differing resolutions currently. It's a feature that has been requested since Surround was announced, but nothing has come of it.

You can have a 4th accessory display that doesn't match, but the main 3 displays need to be the same resolution.

You could potentially turn the two 20" displays back to their landscape orientation and then lower the resolution on the 30" display to match, but that obviously won't look good at all.

This isn't related to your question, but one other thing to keep in mind with Surround is video memory. Running 3 high resolution displays can easily surpass the 1-2 GB of memory on many cards with newer games. If you ever have a choice, opt for the higher memory versions.

I have a 3 monitor setup running in eyefinity on my Sapphire 6870 ATI video card. Should get another 6870 and crossfire, will I notice the performance. I can max out every game (except BF3 on ultra) My motherboard would be running one PCI-E at x16 and the other at x4.


Answer
the biggest drawback on your card is the 1gb vram reports has suggested vram usage of up to 1.8gb on 3 screens running bf3 on ultra which also took least 2 6950 2gb/gtx 570 2gb cards to achieve

What motherboard should I get for my pc?

Hi,

I currently have an HP pavilion P6000 series PC that has an ACPI x64 motherboard and an Athlon II quad core 635 in it, as well as some other parts (i will list them as needed). I was wanting to upgrade the processor to an i5 or i7, but the x64 motherboard is preventing any Intel processors from being installed. So, i'm planning on upgrading that mobo, but i need to find one with the following:

-Compatible with an intel i5 or i7 cpu
-has DDR3 and dual-channel ram capabilities
-Has at least 2 PCI-Express ports on it (the more the merrier)
-Has a wireless card in it that can have an external antenna running out of the PC
-Has 6 or more USB 3.0 ports
-Has capabilities for a 3 monitor setup
-Needs to be same size as ACPI x64 mobo or smaller

So, my question is, are there any recommended motherboards out there that have all these capabilities? Thanks in advance!
-planning on upgrading this pc for gaming
-I currently have a 250 w power supply, but I plan on upgrading it to a 600 w or higher ps
-I also have an evga gtx 550 ti graphics card waiting to be put in
-I'm needing a motherboard that can handle 2 of these cards
-I plan on installing a new copy of windows 7
-the 2+ slots need to be pci-express



Answer
New motherboard=new windows load. OEM license(Product Key) is tied to your current motherboard. The motherboard you describe costs more than your pc is worth today. Unless there were prior upgrades, taking a bad computer case, power supply, and trying to buy a high performance motherboard and cpu. Is this for gaming? The graphics card is more important.
Wireless on a motherboard is a very high end feature. It is added with a $10 card. Do you mean 2 pci Express, or SLI capable? Graphics cards are about 3 monitor setups, not motherboards.

Why don't you take a step back, instead of asking about expensive motherboards, and tell us each of the parts you have today, and what you are trying to accomplish in a function for the PC?

How about the MSI Z87 MPower, to keep it reasonable in cost.
Haswell i5+i7, Wireless module included plugs in the back, 6 USB3 ports in back, plus the case one, SLI Compatible with 3 slots, 2 at x8,x8, lots more features.

$200 is a bargain.
