Sup mates,

I would like to game over three monitors.

I was thinking of 3x a Samsung 2443BW(1920x1200).

Currently my system looks like this:
Core i7 920 @4ghz
OCZ 12GB ram @ 1538 mhz or something like that
Asus P6T x58
1TB Samsung hdd
Zotac GTX480
Coolermaster m620(I'm going to get a Corsair HX1000)

So the parts I will get are EVGA GTX480, Corsair HX1000 and 3x samsung 2443bw.

But will 2x Gtx480 in SLI be enough for triple screen gaming?
I would like to play games like Medal of Honor 2010 and Call of Duty MW2, Black ops.

Anyone has experience with triple screen gaming on 2x a gtx480?
I do not want to run 3d so just 2d :)

Well, I'm gaming in Surround on GTX460 SLI, so I'd reckon that GTX480s could handle it. The main bottleneck in Surround is VRAM. :)

Yes, 2 x GTX 480 can handle it, btw im sure you wont be back to single monitors after you try Surround. :D

I would step up to the AX1200 PSU, or the Antec 1200w one that Anandtech reviewed recently. 1000w isn't exactly cutting it fine, but 1200w should allow a little more headroom.
