this be the first graphic card I have purchase to build my first pc . at the moment of write , it be two generation away from the latest $ 1k gtx 690 so it be pretty good . I should have wait a few week and get this with a Borderlands 2 promotion , but I be too impatient . I think the card be a bit large , but then it be just my motherboard be small -lrb- it be the ASUS 's rog maximus iv gene-z , a matx -rrb- . in the future , I do want to try out slus but it might be troublesome . if I do a better job at cable management , I think I will be able to fit two card in that mobo . I currently have two Acer 23 '' monitor hook up to this card via the two DVI port ; they look very crisp at 1980x1200 . I believe this card support 3 monitor out of the box ; I plan on use hdmus for a 19 '' tv I have .
