Hello everyone, I decided to change my video card and I would like some advice on what to buy. My current PC setup is this:
- Monitor Syncmaster T220 (22"; max resolution 1680x1050)
- AMD Phenom II X4 965
- 4 gb RAM
- Cooler Master GX-750W (RS-750-ACAA-D3)
- Radeon X1550

What I would like to know is, regardless of expense, which is the better video card I could buy. To be more clear, I would not come spend 400 $ for a card that, since the resolution that would go on playing, not being fully exploited. Consider that for at least another two years I would like to maintain my current PC configuration.
Thank you.
 
Unless you upgrade your monitor, I don't think you really need anything more than a 6870. A 6950 at the most.
 
Depends on the games you'll be playing. If it's just CSS you can get away with a low-end card, whereas if you want to play Battlefield 3 on max, you'll want a lot of hardware.
