thanks everyone. evilsofa, that clears it up a lot for me, esp the "do i need 2 cards for a 30" monitor."
now the decision on GTX 275s or 4890s. I misread the price, so got I now that they are comparable at ~450 (including shipping) for the pair.
might buy 1 and wait for price drop when...
Hoping to build a $3000 gaming rig, so would love the experts here to give some feedback -
Bought so far -
CORSAIR CMPSU-1000HX 1000W
ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 LGA 1366
d0 Core-i7 920 (plan to OC this)
Noctua NH-U12P SE1366
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB DDR3 1600
I will be getting a 30" monitor...
Would anyone care to give some guidance on the video card in the same setup?
i7-920, 1000W PS, Asus P6T deluxe, 6gb ram
I am looking at either:
2x BFG GTX 275s ($500 total)
2x HIS 4890 ($540 total)
1 MSI Superpipe OC GTX 285 ($350)
1 Sapphire Radeon 4870x2 ($380)
1 BFG GTX 295...
