I am looking at spending between $150-$250 on a graphics card. I have an amd a10-5800k, 8gb of 1600mhz pny xlr8 ram, and an asus a88xm-a motherboard. I am looking for one under 263mm (case limitation), new, used, or refurbished, off ebay, newegg, or tigerdirect. I am also looking at running at least 2 displays off this card.

GTX 750Ti http://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Superclock-Dual-Link-Graphic... I'm not sure of the size however.


I am looking to get a higher end card now. Something that will last me more than a year and something that will be worth running in sli later on. I put the price so low for something used like maybe a 7970 or something like that.

This one's a pretty good card, and should fit within your size limitations. You can also check out the r9 280.

That card requires one 8 pin and one 6 pin. A good 500 watt PSU is recommended.

Due to the CPU limiting your choice, I recommend the GTX 750 Ti, GTX 760, R7 260X, R7 265, and R9 270X.
