Im stuck with the choice on what graphics card to get. I will either get a Radeon r7 260 (http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp;jsessionid=C56F4408B1E7FB53A5F8784D76139B8C.bbmdotp-app33-106?skuId=2518005&pid=1219074167413&pcatId=abcat0507002) or the NVGA GeForce gtx 750 (http://m.bestbuy.com/m/e/product/detail.jsp;jsessionid=C56F4408B1E7FB53A5F8784D76139B8C.bbmdotp-app33-106?skuId=4906008&pid=1219104862829&pcatId=abcat0507002) I beleive with the NVGA one is not sli compatible. This is a problem because my motherboard doesn't have a hdmi port but I want dual monitors. So what should I get? Sorry if this is the wroung section.

The 750 ti would be a good option. You might want to go with and i5 though and get a more powerful GPU. A GTX 760 or 770 would run games much better than a i7 and a 750ti.

Well, you might be out of luck with this. For dual monitors, you need 2 HDMI ports. What are your system specs? What is your GPU budget?

You can use dual monitors on any modern card. And I mean ANY. The 750TI you have over there has a display port, hdmi and a dvi. You can use any of the 2 ports to hook up 2 monitors. Most monitors come with a Display port and an HDMI, but be sure to check what options do you have. Even my old GT 520 could do it. Cheers.

P.S You don't need the Arctic Silver 5. The paste coming with the 212 is good and also it is non electro conductive. So if you make a mess - there is no possibility to short out something.
