hey guys,i was suppose to be setting up eyefinity last year but didnt have money,anyways im ready to go now so looking for some help.

I have just finished buying my third monitor(samsung p2470hd) i currently have a gtx 470 card just now.....here are my comp specs

Anyways,i am looking into the best eyefinity?/nvidia surround gaming setup.
1.With my specs above can anyone confirm my MB doesnt support sli?i was planning in getting another gtx 470(for now)
2.If not to above what is the best option for my system specs?
3.Should i buy the ati 6970? and have 1 card?
4.should i buy the GTX 570,and have the 1 card(could this 1 card run triple monitor gaming well? at high fps settings?
5.I am looking to be able to run the following games on high tbh.....BC2,L4d2,dirt2/3,team fortress 2.
6.The main game i am planning to run is BC3,so i am looking to run my triple monitors on the best i can get as the game nears release(i understand we cant tell the spcs properly for this game,but to run in in med/high would be fine for me)

7.Is there any other suggestions from the experts on how i can have the best experience on 3 monitors

Ps i cant really afford the 4gb ati 6990 tbh,far to expensiv for me just now/


I would really appreciate any help and knowledge taking into considerations of my system spec,regarding power,Mb,Ram etc

Thank You
