I'm starting to plan a new PC build and need some help/advise on the graphic card side.
I had been thinking of going for a 660ti or a 670, though from what I've seen on here recently I think a 7950 would be a better card.
However... I currently have 2 24" monitors (1920x1200 resolution), both of which only have DVI inputs and so far I don't think I've seen a 7950 that has 2 DVI outputs.
In the slightly longer term, I've been thinking of getting a 3rd monitor - the Dell U2412M is the front runner for that and it has Displayport input, so should not be a problem.
From what I understand, running 2 AMD cards in Crossfire does not allow use of the second cards monitor outputs, so even doing that would not give me 2 usable DVI outputs.
So, main question is, would I be better going for the 670 with 2 DVI and Displayport, or are there any 7950 cards out there that provide 2 DVI outputs?
Or are there other options I've not considered?
