Hi,

I am looking to build a system with the ability to have up to 8 monitors 1920x1080. Each Monitor/selling station will show images (up to 5mb) each in a software very similar to picasa. In total there will be between 15,000 & 20,000 images at any one time. Currently we use 8 separate computers all networked together. I am looking to replace 8 computers with one!

I will be using a software called softexpand http://www.miniframe.com/ the system is not intended for gaming or photoshop just viewing and printing images. The questions are:

1. Am I right using 4x GT610 cards?
2. Would it be better to use 2x GTX 660 cards? (overkill?)
3. Suggestions for any other improvements?

Asus P8Z77 WS Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard £259.99
Intel Core i7-3770 3.40GHz (Ivybridge) Socket LGA1 - Retail £249.95
Avexir MPower Yellow 32GB (4x8GB) DDR3 1600MHz Q Memory Kit £149.99
Samsung 250GB SSD 840 SATA 6Gb/s Basic - £139.99
CM Storm Trooper Full Tower Gaming Case - Black £119.99
Corsair Enthusiast Series TX 850W V2 High Performance £109.99
Corsair Hydro H100i High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler £99.98
LG BH10LS38 10x BluRay-RW / 16 x DVD±RW Lightscribe £79.99
Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache £71.99
4x KFA2 GeForce™ GT610 1024MB GDDR3 64bit Low Profile £29.99

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
 
The whole rig is overkill, if anything you should be throwing money at monitors.
Will post an updated build when i get in and explain.
