Foothead, im not flashing bios on a 5850 lol. i dont want to fool with it.
and i doubt a 5850 would be able to play any game at high settings, a 5870 only got 35Fps in HAWX at that rez.
go Big or GTFO in my opinion.
THOUGH if you can find me some benchmarks to prove a Elcheepo Powercolor 5850 could handle it on triple 22s/24s i would be be happy to see. and perhaps save me $
EDIT 2:
this is my current Exact monitor.
Westinghouse LCM-22W3 22in Flat Panel LCD Monitor - CowBoom Store
i beleive this is as identical as i can find spec wise as to match my current screen so then id only have to get 2 monitors, to cut down on cost.
Newegg.com - ASUS VW225T Black 22" 5ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 8000 :1 (ASCR) Built-in Speakers
I'd get two 5850s is what I meant. Buy one right away, then get a second one after you get the monitors. A single 5850 or 5870 won't get you the uber settings.
That ASUS monitor looks nice, but really what will make the difference is how well you can get them calibrated. All the monitors will need to have color, brightness, contrast, etc. pretty closely matched for it to look right. It can definitely be done, but it will take quite a while to get it perfect.
