what I really want is the 5090. The only reason I got this new card is because I currently have an Intel A770. Now it's a good card, alot better than the 6600XT I had, but the major problem is I enjoy playing racing games. And the A770's triple monitor support is horrible.
With the previous AMD card I had, It was just a one click button operation to get a triple monitor set up. With Intel you need to download another program and manually arrange the monitors to get a triple screen setup to work. And even then it outputs to a lower refresh rate. I have 3 60Hz monitors, but when I set them up in triple screen mode it defaults to 59.94Hz. it used to update to the full 60Hz, but some driver change quashed that and then certain games that I used to be able to play in triple monitor, now default to the center monitor no matter what I do.
So here's hoping I get better results with the new AMD card.
Oof, 5090? That's gonna hurt right in the wallet.
Eh, I'm 53 years old. I just wanted to build a killer system. But life kept me from getting a higher end card till now.
