the reason id like the 2gb over the 4gb is the is for the OC capability and it has a higher clock anyway
Hmm at the combined resolution of 3 monitors (guessing 1080) that would strain most if not all cards today (single) But should be fine resolution wise, rendering wise it may lag depending on game and settings. If possible disable surround gaming feature, that way the games will only render in a single monitor (guessing you want center). Although if done take note that the other 2 screens will blank out whole gaming (in fullscreen).
