Hello,

First of all thanks that are taking the time to read this, i guess i`m number 100.000 with the same question. But its a kinda hard question...

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: ASAP (before battlefield 3) ) BUDGET RANGE: $ 0-1000

USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: purely only for gaming (shooters and maybe sometimes anno 1404 or a similair game)

CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: 4870 X2 with arctic cooling accelero xtreme and a 500W psu

OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: Cooler Master Test Bench(its in desk (closed off with 2 fans, 1 blowing in and the other one blowing out. Asus px58d-e 6GB (1333-777) XMP k3 KHX, Intel Core i7-950, Solid-State Disk 2,5" 120 GB (OCZSSD2-1VTX120G, Vertex Series

OVERCLOCKING: No / Maybe SLI OR CROSSFIRE: Maybe

MONITOR RESOLUTION: 2x 24" 1920/1200

My main concern is noise. I kinda hate it. I have never worked with water cooling and kinda dont want too..
I understand there always be noise. The arctic keeps the noise low enough for me!

Besides that i kinda want the best of the best.... my two bulletpoints are going alone...

I will also buy a new SSD vertex 3 for better perfomance..

Can i use both monitor`s for battlefield3 or future games?

Regards
