I'm looking for a graphics card that can support a 2 vga setup and a HDMI (two VGa samsungs on set up and tv above)
I am after a card that isn't that expensive but can support new games on medium settings at least.

My current set up is:

850watt cosair psu
Asus maximus extreme motherboard
intel i7 3750k
16gb kingston ram
Haf xb case by Cooler Master


I had a asus gtx 570 but packed in on me while playing shadow of mordor :(

No card will natively be able to support two VGA connections and a HDMI.
The card will have one VGA or DVI-I connection. These can be used for one native VGA connection.
If your monitors don't support anything but VGA, you will need to use an active DVI-D to VGA adapter or active DisplayPort to VGA adapter for the second VGA monitor.
For medium settings you should be looking at a GTX 750 Ti from Nvidia or an R7 260X from AMD. This is assuming you only want to run games on of the monitors.
If you want to run a game across all three screens, you need to be looking at a GTX 970 from Nvidia or R9 290 from AMD.
In both cases the Nvidia card uses substantially less power than the AMD card.
