Card needed for GA-890GPA

[discboy321]

I need someone to explain what card to use with the "GIGABYTE GA-890GPA-UD3H AM3 AMD 890GX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard Item #: N82E16813128435" Mostly video editing but also some light gaming and around $100 give or take. I had planned on using "HIS H467QS1GH Radeon HD 4670 1GB 128-bit DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card" but not sure now. Any supporters out there ?

Get an HD5670. Very good card for $100, will run any light game decently. Though tbh, you'd really rather stretch $50 more to get an HD5770.

I need a " 2.0 x16" I do not really understand the difference between a "512MB 128-bit" and a "1GB 128-bit" or even a "1Gb 256-bit" ? I am thinking the more the memory the better but I just am not sure what all this means ?

Here is this "SAPPHIRE 100287L Radeon HD 5670 (Redwood) 512MB 128-bit DDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card w/ATI Eyefinity" for $95.00 How is the " Radeon HD 5670" better than the " Radeon HD 4670" ?

Its performance and technology are very advanced.

You'll want a 512Mb card. The $95 card you posted is just fine.
