Have watched a couple of reviews on this card, and says max resolution was less than 5760x1080, cant find the video this morning, but i think it was referring to a 2000x 2000 odd type resolution, maybe thats a 4k single screen type?
Sorry as cant find the vid, cant give the exact number stated, but it was around that spec.

The second Question is it states that it will require a 750 watt min PSU.
I have an anatec 750W, However it runs a sandybridge 4.5ghz overclock, 1xSSD, and 2x HDD"s. Do you think it would manage.

I have two 680"s in SLI, The reason i want to change is, for a year now i have been struggling with iracing, Crashing with an error report relating to DLL files and "false entries"
This happens no matter how many times i re install the game, change drivers, re install the operating system, change hard drive, check for viruses. check run CPU,Ram, Graphics card checks.
Im at the end of my tether with this, and assume that AMD does not use these files ?
 
Hi thanks snip86x, Iv tried all the drivers in the last year or so, am on the one released a couple of weeks ago.
The only thing i have not tried is one card, Thats my next attempt if the game crashes tonight, Iv been trying to avoid that cause of the drop in framerates, but that is next on the list to work through. Though it seems software related or at least i assume because it related to error in files. I do graphics tests, and power and stability is fine, as in every other game.
Here is a typical error log

stack @ 0x0000000007ACEB50
App Base=0x0000000140000000
Warning: Trace may contain false entries...
Finished
Exception Module: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\nvd3dumx.dll
 
I know someone else with the exact same issue on a 660. "quick burn in test" ? Iv re tested my overclock just with prime 95, no errors or overheating. for the record in iracing i think my hottest core from memory is about 65 degree"s.
It is also an MSI, I have two twin froza"s 680 4GB"s This actually could be a hardware GPU problem ? TBH they run fautless with everything else, nice and smooth
