Hi,
I am wanting to upgrade my video card in order to run a surround setup with 3 1080p monitors. I would like to do this on BF3, however, I only want one card, no sli. I am aware that I will not be able to do this on the highest settings, as the only way to do that would be to go sli/crossfire. I would probably get about medium settings right? I am leaning towards a gtx 670 from EVGA. My question is: for running a surround setup, will the extra VRAM of the 4GB version make a difference, or should I go with the 2GB FTW that has a higher clock and is about 60 dollars cheaper.
Currently running:
CORSAIR Builder Series CX600 (CMPSU-600CX) 600W ATX12V v2.3 Active PFC Power Supply
EVGA SuperClocked 01G-P3-1461-KR GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
GIGABYTE GA-Z68A-D3-B3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
Core i5 2500k
Patriot G series ‘Sector 5’ Edition 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model PGV38G1600ELK
Would definitely appreciate feedback from somebody who has experience with this type of setup or similar.
Thanks
