I have just ordered this ( MSI ATI Radeon HD 6950 OC Twin FrozR III Power Edition) to upgrade from my old 8800GT so as to run 3 monitors. Previously i have been using a single HPw2207 (1680x1050) but would like to upgrade to have a full 1080P as front monitor, if so could i still use 2 1680x1050 monitors at the side? or should they both be the same model?Or do i need 3 monitors all the same for refresh rate/colours etc?
ANY advice please:-)Thank You
PS I was hoping to keep the price about £180 for centre Monitor and whatever for the side.

I want to run eyefinity and unfortunatly whilst waiting for a reply have bought a Benq G240HDBL 24" monitor and picked up another brand new HP w2207 for a good price. Will the stretching be noticeable on the 24" when running at 1680x1050 ?
 
Thanks, looks like i need to do some backpedalling :-((
I will cancel the Benq G24 and order another 1680x1050 monitor. Thanks for the advice Surveyor..
