Which card to get to run triple monitors?

[nico-katzj]

Hi folks!
I am going to buy a new card/s as I am upgrading to a triple monitor setup, as of now I only have one 760 which could hardly withstand any games except minesweeper over 3 monitors. My max budget it £400 give or take a bit. I don't know which card to get out of there two, I know they are not the best value for money but I am also building an aesthetic computer with a specific colour scheme.

Card 1: ASUS striker 760 (4gb) THIS CARD I WOULD BUY TWO AND PUT IN SLI

Card 2: Asus MARS 760 (4gb) Buy only one of these but it is an sli card.

I would like to know which one would run games (e.g. watchdogs, CSGO, Battlefield) better across 3 monitors, I am currently leaning towards the dual strikers but I want to know an opinion before I go spending cash.

Thanks
Jake

Dual SLI 4 gb would be better or you can sell the card and get 2x 970 SLI = £274x2 = £548. If you can sell the card for 130 - 150 £ then you will have enough budget for 2x970 and 970 will give you double the performance you will be getting from 760.

I know this is really hard to estimate, but running two asus striker 4gb 760 in sli over 3 1080p monitors, what kind of frame rate would I get playing BF4?

My setup:
Mobo: Asus vii ranger
GPU:2x sli 760 (4gb each)
CPU: i5 4690k
Ram: Corsair vengeance 16gb (4 sticks 4gb each) 1600mhz
SSD: (run BF4 on) samsung 128gb pro840

I know it is really hard to estimate fps but would it be playable with this setup over 3 monitors? i.e. 60fps plus?
Thanks guys

Yes tha is hard to assume but what i know 2x760 sli in triple monitor setup gives around 35-40 fps on bf4.
