5760 x 1080 Eyefinity questions....

I currently am running 3 x Dell s2209w monitors with a 5760x1080 res and am looking to run eyefinity. Would a well cooled 5770 card work for me such as the Sapphire or XFX cards?

Or should I really go with a 5850?

Also, for a little more info I mainly use my comp for ms office and apps and am a light gamer but would like to use eyefinity for a little mw2/bioshock

you might squeek by with a 5770 with very low image quality settings.. it will really dep on the game. here's a good review showing what you can expect from all the eyefinity cards

You could get two 5770s and run them in crossfire - That's what I have and it works great. Run MW2 no problems matched with a i5 750 CPU.

I was weighing in that option but needed a power supply too so I went with the NewEgg special for the Sapphire 5850 + 600w PSU for $300

GOOD DEAL IMHO :cheers
