Haha, as far as I am concerned, monitor-wise you can never have too many.
Two minimum - I could find uses for three or four, specially if one has a TV tuner :cool:

problam with that is this thread is for gaming rigs, having more moniters takes performace away from Graphics card and CPU

I'm waiting for the GT300 and/or Hemlock release, major upgrades will have to wait until then.
Then again, wouldn't mind upgrading my old G5 to a G9... :D

LOL i might take that G5 off your hands if you upgrade, how old is it?

Must be 3 years old already, come to think of it, still works perfectly and always has. Certainly speaks volumes about the quality.
I don't have enough money for any sort of upgrade at the moment, so don't count on it :D

It'll most probably replace the E5200-based system's mouse (Microsoft optical mouse, been acting up) as things stand, but I'll keep that in mind. ;)

umm...
2X5870 & i7... what could take away performance?

I'd assume he meant that playing games at 2560x1600 (1x30") will be smoother than at 5120x1600 (2x30"). Even 2xHD5870 with an i7 CPU will suffer at that resolution.
