Having used both ATI and nVidia I am very happy with an ATI 6970 running
eyefinity and 3 screens which has proven more reliable than my previous
GTX285 wth a TH2Go.

Processor wise I use an Intel i7 920. I get good results with iRacing
with this combo running three screens.

Won't HDTVs possibly induce some lag? Not sure these days.

Using a 64 bit OS and 6Gb RAM allows for replays to be saved in entirety
though I think there is a spooling option now so this may not be an
advatntage.

Good luck
