Hey ya'll

How's preppin for MoP going? Excited? I know I am :)

So, heres my question. Ive got a Zotac 670 4gig, and was wondering what kind of adapters I would need, if i wanted to connect 4 screens to the card. And would running 4 screens have any big impact on performance? Was thinking about running 3 x 17"/19" screens and 1 x 22" screen.

Ty in advance

I think you need HDMI -> DVI adapter and a Display Port -> DVI. Performance wise , it will take a hit. But should be still playable for wow. You are rendering something like 3840x2160. And Most ppl use SLI 670/680 for those and use 2 DVIs connections from each card.

It does not really use much at all, Windows uses 100 meg per a screen I run 4 screens atm with 10 wow's open and it does fine the 670 is a great card and basically just as fast as the 680 but underclocked a tiny bit due too nvidia did not want to just give there cards away at a lower price :)

This is how I have my setup with 4 screens
