think two of these overclocked will be able to handle 3x 24inch T240 ? with 4xAA 16AF? thats my goal

across the board?
 
I didn't mean it like that, sorry. I have read in a million places that using 2 bridges has a detrimental affect to stability in crossfire configs.

Ah right never heard that myself!

It's easily removed if that does turn out the case
 
Well im going to pick up 2 asus ones. 2 of these of better than a 4870x2 in most games not forgetting the drivers are not fully matured yet. Could always add a third next year.
 
So there is now no difference between the asus and powercoler versions? as both ship with the same egg cooler??

A 650w corsair tx psu would be enough to power 2 of these in crossfire wouldnt it? with a I5chip mobo, 4gig ram, 1 hdd and 2 opitcal? Or would you need something else? Or anyone suggest a cheapepr PSU that would do the trick?

Got my 5770 today from OCuk, went for the Power colour one on special. Have to say i am really impressed, i upgraded from a 4850 and it is quite a step up!

running pretty much all my games maxed (@ 2048x1152) and its like butter! MW2 is probably the most noticable improvement for me.

also gave Eyefinity a go with just 2 monitors, i know it looks silly having the crosshair in the middle but still nice to play around! might look at getting a third monitor.

Gonna try hooking up 2 projectors and giving that a go, just need to find a big enough wall in my house :P

horrible quality recorded on my phone but thats my current setup. Odd sized monitors doesn't help either.
 
well i dont play crysis or anything hugely demanding. ok maybe that statement was a little hasty, shattered horizon still destroys it if i crank that to the max. Bare in mind i am coming from a 512mb card to a 1gb card, and at my res the difference is very noticable :)

2 projectors would work fine with Eyefinity, they would join without any bezel.
