June 18, 201114 yr Hello,This is a repost from the video card forum. Didn't get an aswer there. Maybe someone can help here. TIAAfter a long hiatus, I'm getting back into simming. The setup that I'm thinking o putting together consists of:- Intel i5 2500k (looking into OC)- Asus P8P67 Pro Rev. 3- 4GB X 2 PC3 16000 RAM- SSD for FSX- 750W or 850W depending on card selection(s).I'm a little confused as of which video card I should be getting. I'm planning on doing eventually a 3 monitor setupand probably would be going the TH2GO route. So based on those factors what would my best choice be for a video card?These are the options based on my budget.- NVidia GTX 480- NVidia GTX 560 Ti- Nvidia GTX 570Thanks in advance for any input. I have read the different post regarding these cards except on the GTX 570.

I was plannig on ruunig the TH2GO on 3 1680 X 1050 22" Monitors,do you think I will still need a GTX 580? I was not planning on spending that much on a video card.
June 19, 201114 yr Thanks for the recommendation. I was plannig on ruunig the TH2GO on 3 1680 X 1050 22" Monitors,do you think I will still need a GTX 580? I was not planning on spending that much on a video card.It's not about the 580 compare to the 570 or 480 it's about the 3GB you will probably need, futher more if you use high AA it will be a must with everything you will be running in high resolution.if you can save a little more and get the 3GB card, trust me.If you did not get the monitor yet go for the 3D monitor...... http://www.3dvisionlive.com/
