I realise both systems are over kill but my next computer will have to last 5 years+

Any help from tech guys?

Well, if u can get a pc with 2x580 for roughly the same prize as 2x5870 i would say the 2x5870 pc is extremly overprized. (sounds odd to me though, 580 is at least twice as expensive.)

And, as already said, u can run 3 monitors with 2 580 and 3D if u prefer that.


Gtx580 eats 5870 for breakfast, lunch and dinner, no way arround that.
