    Default Re: Upgrading Graphics Card

    a radeon 6950 would give you enough horsepower for some time perhaps a bit of overkill if you are planning on using 19" monitor and i think you can game with 3 monitor with this card at a decent framerate but you would need a display port to dvi converter for the third monitor. If you want to save some money get a radeon 6870, it will be enough for single monitor gaming but not quite for 3 monitor gaming but if you dont mind sacrificing image quality for performance any will game will run smoothly. Either way check whether you have enough power and the required pcie power cable on your psu. Look around for reviews and you will find more info
