General Upgrade Question

black-ops · 10 Sep 2011 at 23:36

Okay,

So I've got about £1,717 to spend and I've already got a system built that I wish to upgrade, current specs:

ATI 6950 2GB MSI - Twin Fozr II
4GB DDR3 Corsair Dominator Ram
AMD 965 Phenom II Black edition
OCZ 800 Watt PSU

I currently run my games at 1280 x 1024 on a 22" Acer Monitor.

However, in this budget I would like to (If possible) include two more 22" monitors, OR if you can recommend a 27" Monitor that would be better suited for gaming then please do so.

I intend to be playing BF3 without an issue at this resolution on max so would another 6950 be suitable?

If possible I'd like to run it over 3 monitors as well (with the 2 monitors in budget).

Kind regards,

bulldozer is due out soon so might want to hold off on the upgrade.

Oh nice, any ETA on that?

Scrap the Acer monitor and get three new shiny sleek monitors for use with eyefinity... it really is pretty damn good!

If you wanted to max the settings... another 6950 would be beneficial.

I play BF2 on eyefinity, 1080p monitors... I get around 30-35fps on high settings. So another card is definitely worth it.
