3D surround with 2x or 3x SLI 480? Opinions please.
Hi Guys,

I currently have 3-way SLI 480's running with 3D vision and 1 Alienware monitor. I am itching to try surround. I am considering selling my 3rd GTX 480 in order to get 2 more alienware monitors.

Is the 3-way SLI with 3D vision performance better with surround than it is with a single monitor? When 3D vision is enabled now I am essentially getting the same performance of 2x Sli. However, 3-way SLI scaling is excellent without 3D vision enabled.

What do you think? Should I stick with 3-way SLI and wait to get the alienware monitors in the future? Should I sell one Gtx 480 and put the money towards 2 alienware monitors and go with 2x Sli? I am looking for the best possible gaming experience. If 3D Surround is it then I want it! Opinions please!

Thanks,
