Need help deciding

Hey guys, I am going to be buying a new pc in the coming weeks and I am wondering what Graphics cards should I get?

My Choices are:
2 XFX HD 6970's (with water blocks)
2 Zotac 3GB GTX 580's (without water blocks)
3 EVGA 1.5GB GTX 480's (with water blocks)

I am having a hard time trying to choose what to get so, I was hoping that you guys could help me.
Thanks xKaotiiKx
 
You provide no information whatsoever that will enable anyone to answer your question.

*What resolution are you planning on gaming at?

*What games are you going to be playing

*Are you aware of the problems crossfir/sli can cause

*Are you aware the 7XXX series is already out and the 6XX series is imminent?
 
OMG the power draw on 3x 480 - that's insane. Not that the other 2 are any better but max power draw with the cards alone would be about 750 watts.

Like Charlie98 stated - you would likely get more clearcut input in the Video Card forum.
