Currently i have an Dell U2713 2560x1440.
Im planing to add an extra two 1920x1080 monitors on each side in portrait mode (need the exstra space when multitasking windows stuff, programming etc).
I currently have one Asus Strix GTX970 on order for replacing my Asus 280X Matrix Platinum.
My question is, would having three screens put a seriouse dent in my gaming performance? even though im only using the DELL screen for the actually gaming. Tried to google a bit and found that it would depend a bit on the VRAM accessible, anyone with experience on this one.
I mostly play "new games" and am a "whore" for eyecandy, if i cant run everything on MAX with decent fps i get pissed off
Should i alternatively do dual GTX970 or upgrade to an single GTX980? Pr today there isnt much performance difference between 970 and 980, but that might have something to do with driver optimalization?. Also the VRAM would be the same size on 970/980 so would it help at all really on my multisetup?
Price in my country GTX970 = 420usd, GTX980=750usd....
Btw i cant go triple card (the mobo doesnt have space for more than dual). Also running 1155 with ivy bridge i7 3770k, so might be some issues with available pci-express lanes.
