I wont upgrade to 3 x GTX 580, my GTX480s are still up to the job at 5040x1050 for any game, including Crysis 2 (i guess).

I on the contrary am quite tempted to make the jump... :oops: 480s are plenty good, but 580s are a little better at everything, so what the heck. And right now is probably the good time to sell used 480s, before the value & demand drop too much.

I'm not too concerned about the 1.5 GB thanks to my relatively modest resolution, but it'd be really cool indeed to see 3 GB cards in the near future :)

I've read most reviews there is about the 580's and it seems they have fixed everything I didn't like with the 480. If the 6970 doesn't hold up against it, I will get one of those this time I think. Seems like a pretty solid card. :)
