    3XS Z77 Performance Upgrade

    I got my system last month and I'm super happy with it. I have been thinking about getting a triple screen setup. Would 1 GTX680 Be ok for this or should I add another?

    Also if I add another will I need to upgrade the PSU? I think the stock one was a 650W.

    My system was stock except I had 16gb of RAM and a H80 CPU Cooler.

    Hi Vaad

    You can run 3 screens on one 680 (depending on size) though to get better performance you would need a second card and yes a bigger PSU 1050 or a 1200 Watt

    Regards
