My graphics adapter is failing and I need to replace it as soon as possible. Since my system is 5 years old I don’t want to invest a lot into a new GPU. My budget is $125-$225 and I would prefer it to be on the lower end.
I need two DVI ports because I use dual monitors while playing WOW and other games. Also, I’ll watch youtube or a movie sometimes while playing WOW so I need an adapter that can handle that as well. Does anybody have a suggestion that will be as good replacement for the Radeon HD 4870?
Lastly, a cool quite card that is an upgrade would be preferred.
Thanks
My system is:
I7 940 Nehalem 2.93GHz LGA 1366
Intel BOXDX58SO LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX MB
MSI R4870 MDIG Radeon HD 4870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Exp 2.0 x16 HDCP
128 GB Intel SSD Drive
1TB HD
8GB Ram
TX650W Power supply (Corsair)
Windows 7 Ultima
