Okay, I been contemplating getting a 5870 for a three 22" LCD Eyefinity set up. From my current research I know a regular 5870 will do the job more than adequately but now they have this new 2GB 5870. I understand its for a six monitor setup, which I have no intention of getting six monitors, but I've also heard the 2GB really helps at the higher resolutions.
So my question to those in the know is this, Would I gain anything (performance) by going with the 2GB card over the 1GB card when using it in a 3x22" Eyefinity set up (5040x1050)? And if so, how much? Lets exclude price vs performance argument and pretend price is not a factor or the fact the 2GB card is made for 6 monitors. I'm guessing the 2GB card can be used for a 3 lcd setup just fine?
Thanks in advance for any input.
