I want to run 3 - 24" 1080 X 1920 portrait so effectively 3240 X 1920. I ruled out 2 monitors because i don't want a seam running down the middle. I am not a big gamer, but i enjoy Civ 5, some older Need for Speed, and GTA 3 and vice city. I was thinking of the 5770 FleX originally, but i think it may be underpowered to run 3 monitors. Any suggestions?

I asked a guy how eyefinity works and he just flat out confused me. Do you need anything special to make it work? Or does the card do it all?

One HD58xxx or HD59xx card can run an Eyefinity setup.

The HD6000 series also supports Eyefinity.
