Hi guys,

I have 2 Packard bell 1080p monitors. Bog standard stuff, Nothing fancy.

I have room for a third and found one cheap online, So will be buying it soon. Just wondering if my XFX 6850 will be enough to power 3 monitors.

Do a lot of DJ'ing but generally games wise I play GTA4, Crysis 1,2,3 Borederlands 2, CSGO, NFSU2/Most wanted. Was wondering if I will need something a bit more powerful to push 3 monitors on these games at a decent frame rate, and for the future (GTA5 e.t.c)

Would I better getting another 6850 or bumping up to a 7850/7950?

Thanks
 
Oh and I have my 32" samsung running off my Motherboard's built in HDMI with Lucid Logic, Will I still be able to do that? Or would I be using 4 ports over 2 cards?
