I was wondering if my current rig (see sig) would have the horsepower to maintain good frame rates if I switched to a triple monitor setup? If it's not going to be smooth then I'll hold off buying monitors until I can get some HD79xx hardware to drive them.

You could run many games on reduced settings with your setup. But you should have more power imo.

Seems like 2x 6990s are going to the minimum to drive all 3 monitors at that resolution.

5850s run out of vram, even if you OC them to 1ghz.
1gb vram is not enough for 3 monitor without turning down settings a lot.
