Graphics Card Update

[techgeek420]

Right now I have a Nvdia GTX 465. I want to upgrade a graphics card that can support 3 monitors. My price point in about $220. Any suggestions on what card I should get?

Im looking at the SAPPHIRE 100314-2SR Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card with Eyefinity but not sure if thats the right choice.

No... It's an AMD Radeon HD 5xxx series or higher graphics card.

I do have a amd processor... 2 quad cores infact

The 6870 will support 3 monitors, and you'll see a boost in performance, not a huge boost, but a boost nonetheless.

is there another card that is around the same price the will boost my performance more than the 6870?

sorry i was thinking of AMD vision.....

anyway, if you're thinking of boosting it more than the 6870, you should lookinto the 6950. its about
50-70$ more expensive though, but its considered the best card out there for price and performance.
