Hello TH!
Since it's my birthday soon, i'll be getting some money, which means that I can finally upgrade my graphics card, yay! But I have a low understanding of what's the best for the price range that I can afford, which is 200-300 dollars.
Also, will I be able to have 2 graphics cards? Since i use 2 monitors, i would be able to hook them up to different cards.

Specs:
CPU: i7-2600K OC'd to 3,70 GHz - Sandy bridge
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 560
Ram: 12 GB - DDR3
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4-B3 - intel p67 chipset
Monitors: 2, a 24 inch, and a 22 inch.

the 770 is a great card but it's very rare to get it under $300. If you can't stretch your budget the 760 is your best option at $250

You don't need multiple cards for multiple monitors

I was originally going to reccomend the 760 4 gig edition. But that card is HUGE.

R9 280. Its a rebranded 7950 that is a little more efficient. In addition it comes with 3 games. IMO its a MUCH better deal than a GTX 760. The R9 280/7950 is a very solid card. Best you can buy under 300 unless you can find a 280x under 300 (which is possible if its on sale).

Ugh.. I hate living in Denmark. All of the cards, except the 760, are about 370-400 dollars..
I'll probably go for the 760, but would the "MSI GeForce GTX 750 Ti Gaming - 2GB" be a bad choice?

The 760 whipes the floor with the 750 Ti both in gaming performance and benchmarks.
760 got almost 2x as many cores and transistors and puts out 2x as much GTexels/s - GPixel/s.

since you are using 2 monitors take the 4gb MSI GTX 760 even though all 3 are great choices you can't go wrong with any of them

ASUS GTX 760 DC2OC or Gigabyte GTX 760 OC Rev 2.0.

Asus takes up a little more space. But looks better and has a really good "noise to cooling performance" ratio.

The Gigabyte is slighly more factory overclocked.


Which one of these things that are most important is up to you to deside.
Personally i would go with the Asus version and just tweak it more myself.
