i7 2600 sandy bridge
H61M/U3S3
430w psu
2x asus vs24a (1920x1200)
use: mainly work machine but will do some gaming.
i know im probably going to need to replace the PSU & will probably replace it with a 730w raidmax.
i have a tight budget (~$200 for both the card and the PSU) so that unfortunately does have to factor in.
I dont really need to be able to run games full tilt with all options to max, but the intelHD just cant hang with the higher resolutions on the new monitors.
its been so long since i have had to worry about video cards that Im no longer really tied to any specific flavor so amd and nvidia are both fair game. would prefer 2 DVI connectors but the monitors will also do HDMI (would rather not have to drop extra dough on HDMI cables because they are all in use at the moment).
thanks for any input you guys have
