Have a budget of 500-600 dollars to try and get a eyefinity setup. Need opinions on monitors that would fit that budget. I know its not much but if anyone has any suggestions let me know. Would like the monitors to have 1920x1080 resolution and LED backlit if possible.

Current system specs

AMD 1100T @ 3.7ghz
Sapphire 7950 OC
8gb DDR3 1600
Single 21" display.

Get 3 dell u2312hm monitors.

Everything you asked for. Also some things you didn't. Has native display port so these are ready for your eyefinity goodness.
You could also call up a dell rep and get a good deal because you're buying 3 at once. Cheers.

Very cool, little more than I want to spend but whats an extra hundred here or there for eyefinity perfection!

with my Video Card I bought an active minidisplay to DVI adapter, should I get another active one for the 3rd monitor or just get a passive one?

You could just run Displayport directly from the card to the monitor.
