760 GTX for dual monitor?

[Paddymofoz]

Hey folks, got another inquiry for you all. So I'm in the process of my new PC build and I will be streaming my gaming once I get it all up and running so the question I have is this -

Will I be able to play the likes of BF3 on one 24" at 1920x1200 and have another screen for twitch.tv chat and other chat/browser viewing while gaming.

If you also want to have a look at my overall build to help decide, please refer to my other post below.

Hope someone can help and give some advice, as always, much appreciated!

I do somewhat the same thing on my 560ti, so I'd say sure.

Having simple display on a second monitor is a piece of cake for almost any GPU really.

How much of a performance hit do you take? LIke say your playing BF3 on one screem, and have battlelog, or facebook open in the other screen?

None, unless you have something rendering 3D. Then again, I have my radar up on one screen when it's storming and play on the other screen with no drop in performance.
