| [quote]Thx a lot to everybody! Now I have no doubts, I just don't know if going SLI or not, or maybe wait for the 690... Because 680 SLI is almost 1100 euros here in spain... The 690 isn't likely to be cheap either. If it's less than 800-900 Euros I'll be quite surprised. And the TDP of the 680 is ... |

| Got mine working finally. Apparently the refurb displays had borked firmware- get what ya pay for. Ended up going with Dell UltraSharp displays that support portrait mode, and everything works wonderfully with 2 DVI and 1 DP. I've tried out portrait mode as well with the 680, in addition to using t... |

Could you try an old game, like CSS or something like that. Even waving windows in both monitors in your desktop to see if there is tearing.
Thx for the input! |

I'm also interested in whether tearing (over different connectors, i.e. 2x DVI + 1x DP) is an issue or not as well.
Yes, exactly. I'm thinking of buying one and would really like to know. |
