If really wanna game in 3 monitors get amd eyefinity technology. By right you will need 2 gpus. But sadly to say you will need a z87 gaming board to allow the both cards to run on x8 x8 bandwidth. Unlike lower end boards when xfire 2 amd gpu it will be x8 x4. The slave gpu performance is not gonna push much performance out of it.

I just state out the components you need for both reality and for 3 monitors setup.

The 3 monitors setup.

Msi z87 g45 gaming + i5 - 4670k ~ $ 499

SSD must get at least 256GB lah

On another note, i am still very reserved about AMD crossfire setups recommendation due to persistently high frame variance even with frame pacing enhancement.

No need until that much lah.

You don't really want your fun to get spoiled by the lack of capacity to install games when you have such a super-duper powerful machine right?

Then it spoils the main purpose of having SSD...

 

[abcboy25]

Lucky u come to this forum and ask for advise,the old birds here will try their best to help.

U can try PM Fortran for help if u want to save all the process of buying and assembling your rig.

I just got my rig from fortran,good price and very good service.

 

[Meteor84]

service/assembly/accessory.. what accessory? just for you to compare, pcthemes service and assembly is $10 if you buy everything or almost everything from their shop. really chop carrot sia.. care to share what shop? must add to ban list

 

[Meteor84]

the whole point of an SSD for games is installation and loading speed. you put games on a HDD, OS on SSD.. your game loading speed is still gonna be equally slow. totally defeats the purpose. only thing you get is a really fast OS boot up time and everything else is still wols
