Hi all I am wondering what graphics card is sensible to go with a GTX 560 hooked up in SLI, my current GTX 560 is not really enough for my gaming experience so I am wondering whether another 560 will be enough or I should get a 570.

Something I will be doing in the near future is hooking up three 23" 3D monitors so take that into consideration.

Thank you

It'll have to be another 560. SLI doesn't permit mixing GPUs:

It's been the worst day since yesterday (thanks Flogging Molly) so apt!
A 570 is not 'that big' a step up from a 560 really.

Another 560 is the way to go. All though you will be a bit vram limited if going surround in the future.

If budget allows, a GTX 670 would be better suited to surround. You can always use the 560 as a dedicated physx card.
