    Graphics Card & Monitor Shopping

    Another graphics card thread!

    I'm looking to get a new graphics card and monitor/HDTV for my rig.

    My current setup is:
    Intel Core Quad Q6600 @ 2.40 GHz
    4GB RAM
    Windows 7 64-bit
    ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO (gimp)


    I'm looking to upgrade & get a second monitor for gaming/browsing. I don't plan on playing very graphic intensive games, mainly just preparing for FFXIV, Starcraft II, & Diablo III. Willing to spend up to $300 on the card, TV, doesn't matter. I have a 22" Dell monitor that I want something to work nicely with to dual screen & play 360/PS3 on via HDMI.

    Any suggestions on a new card or screen? Father's Day sales?

    You might get some July 4th deals. There was a GTX 295 and 480 deal not to long ago for $350.

    The top 4 or 5 cards may not be the most recent, but they're $150-$200 and can handle the games you've listed.
