I was wondering which GPU I should get for my first build. I want this build to be as future proof as possible, and let's assume money isn't a problem (within reason). I want to hook up my build to a 37 inch HD 1080p flatscreen TV, the make is Acoustic Solutions if that helps. Would I be able to do this, and which card would I need? I want it to run more than adequate too.

More about : 1gb 2gb higher gpu

Well if price isnt an issue a card from ATI in the hd 7000 series would be what you need, something high up in the tiers though. The 7970 is more than you will need any time soon but is expensive, anything really from the 7800's up would do what you need, its really just a price issue at that point.

So would this card be okay: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 2GB. Bearing in mind I'll be using the TV I described.

Yes, that card will do everything you need it to. As for the tv as long as it has an hdmi input it will work.

Yeah, at the moment I have a HDMI cable plugged into the TV for my Xbox.
