Hello,I want an ATI Radeon video card to mate with the HD 4200 onboard video. What is a good budget card to run 2 monitors for photo editing?

May I ask why do you want to do it ?
Hybrid Crossfire doesn't affect Photo editing.HD 4200 along with a good CPU can handle photo editing fine.

Onboard graphic is generally good for "general" purpose, including photo editing, maybe it's not too good but it can do that well.

Thanks for the reponse. I have an Athlon II X4 630, with 4 Gig RipJaw RAM. I wasn't sure the onboard video would do a good job with 2 monitors.

No gaming at all? Just for running 2 monitors?
Then any modern HTPC card is good, like HD4350. Or if you want more power then get GT240 or HD5670.

Thanks, I'll go with that and check things out.

An onboard card such as HD 4200 can handle 2 monitors fine but as wa1 mentioned,if you need a discrete card then go with HD 4350.
