I've seen some threads on this, but they all seem outdated. I am currently looking for a decent graphics card where I can hook up 2 24" LED monitors in extended mode. At the same time as a TV (HDMI port) for the kiddies to watch a movie while I work. Maybe also in extended mode, so I don't have to loose a monitor.

Both monitors right now are connected through DVI + DVItoDP (non-active). Currently I have to disable one of my Monitors to connect it through HDMI. Which is lame..

Current card is MSI R7750-PMD2GD3 Radeon HD 7750 2GB 128-bit DDR3 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card

I'll be using it mainly for Adobe CS6 suite editing and watching some BlueRay vids.

I'd like something that'll be worth getting now with out having to upgrade in the next lets say 2-3 years. Budget is up to $200. Open to all suggestions.

The Sapphire HD 7870 GHz OC 2GB http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A2J4ROE/ref=as_li_q... would be perfect for what you're wanting and under your budget.


Great! Would I need to buy an Active Displayport Adapter?


Nope, it already has two DVI outputs. If you add a third monitor then yes, you would need an active display adapter.


That's what I like to hear. With all the information floating around about having another 3rd monitor needing a active DP adapter. I figured that my TV would be considered a 3rd monitor. Or sometimes you can't have the combination of 2 DVI's with HDMI... So, confusing.

Thanks for the response,
