Are you adding that monitor to another, or is it a replacement? If it's the latter, and you intend to use it on it's own, you don't really need the 4GB version of the 670 - the 2GB will be fine and save you a few quid). In which case, computeruniverse.com is another place to check prices.

i currently have a 24" for gaming and a secondary 22" for broqsing and such. the reason that im going for the 4gb version is that i have a vision of having 2 670s and 3 benq monitors for gaming. and the extra 2gb will help when running 1080p on three displays.

4GB is definitely the way to go so. And no, I'm not in the slightest bit jealous :pac:

If you are planing to go 3 monitor setup I would highly recommend going ati then.

My 680 is an arse for multymonitor setup. It does not just work with 3 monitors same resolution. It needs all 3 monitors same resolution and same polarity!!! You can buysame 3 monitors and have different polarities!

2gb is enough for multymonitor setup, but you might as well better go for 7970 ghz with 3gb, unless you need to go for nvidia.

+1 for AMD if you are going multi screen for gaming OP, especially since they got their act together driver wise.

@ shadow-Give a look here-this guy has a workaround for the nvidia surround sync issue by tricking the Nvidia driver that all three monitors were identical.


Another guy did similar on WSGF, might be worth a try..
