Hello, 

i’m plannig to build my second computer for racing game.( forza horizon 3 or forza series or..) 

 

 

 

I have 3 monitors ( 3 dell u2417 will be nvidia surround , resoulution will be 5760 x 1080) with i5-4670 and 16g ram.  Only one thing i’m in trouble is a selecting graphic card for good price and good performance.

 

There are 4 options for me but i can’t find best answer for my system.

 

1060 6g 

1070 

1070 ti 

1080  - worried bottleneck 

 

It’d be great if you give me help for selecting graphic card!

Get the best that you can afford. That said, a GTX 1080 would be most ideal. Don't worry about a bottleneck. At 5760x1080, most newer games will be GPU bound.

If you really want to go Balls to the Walls, I recommend getting a Vive instead of 3 monitors. I had the pleasure to try both (with the best hardware availabe, it was a showcase) and the difference is unimmaginable. 3 monitors in surround is fine, but they almost cost as much as a VR headset, so you might as well upgrade.

1080 would be decent. But as it’s the best in your budget then it’s the only choice. The only thing I hate about is the connections as my monitors only have dvi.
