I have a 3-monitor setup right now......
and my 5570 isn't capable of rendering games at that high resolution.. :oops:
Can anyone give me any advice.
(like buying a new graphics card or something)
But of course from ATI only. :bowdown
I'm not going to spend a fortune on Nvidia sh*tty GPU's.
ANyways can u recommend something that will work with a 800 Watt PSU?
Thanks.....

What is the current rating and brand of the 800w supply?

And yeah, of course you need a more powerful graphics card. The 5850 is a nice card, but depends what res you will use

What resolution are your monitors?

For 3x1920x1080 or x1200 monitors, I can recommend no lower than a 5850, but would highly recommended getting a 5870 with 2GB of VRAM.
For 3x1600x900 or 3x1680x1050 I recommend the 5850 with 1GB of VRAM.
Any Smaller a 5770 with 1GB VRAM will suffice.

I cant recommend anything weaker, they just wont do.

The other option is 5770 CF, it performs slightly better than 5870, but still cost less.

AMD is lowering the price of 5770 to welcome NVidia GTS450. So you can get it for $129 a piece at places such as newegg.
