OK guys, need some advice. I've been chewing on this for a while now and maybe there is something I'm missing
I want to go three three monitors. We all know ATi has Eyefinity, and since I want to be able to crank it, I was thiinking the 5970 would work for me.
But word on the street is nVidia will make it so older cards can achieve their version of eyefinity.
If I got tream Red, I'll have the huge cost of the 5970, the display port adapter, and I might have to worry about shitty frame rates sooner rather than later, especially since newer games are popping out. I won't lose the PCIe 2.0 feature though.
OR, I could get myself two 285's, or even two 280's and save a ton of money. Of course I'll lost PCIe 2.0 AND....AND.....I'll drop from PCIe 16 to PCIE 8x since I have a P55 motherboard.
