Which one of these 3 cards would you buy?

Hi All,

I have a powerhouse computer (circa 2008) used for stock trading (intense charts), home theater and Photoshop. The video card died yesterday and I've been reading like crazy for 24 hours.

I've narrowed it down to these three cards:

Sapphire Radeon R9 280X 3GB GDDR5 Dual-X OC Version (UEFI)
Used for $200.00

Sapphire Radeon HD 7950 3GB DDR5 with Boost PCI-Express 11196-19-20G
Used for $200.00

ASUS GTX750TI-OC-2GD5 Graphics Card
New $140.00

I DO NOT GAME but I will be running FOUR displays. I have a 1,000 watt psu.

Here's my setup (yesterday's post on TH) if you want more detail:

I've eliminated most other cards due to price. I really like the Quadro NVS 420 (or better yet, the new NVS 510) and would buy it but I can't find one at an affordable price. I need to stay around $200 max.

Of the above 3, which would you pick for workstation graphics on FOUR monitors? I'm not setting up a poll so I can get your opinion with your vote.

Thanks

Mr. Biker

The GTX 750 Ti can only support 3 monitors if I recall correctly, so that would rule that out.

The 280X is a rebranded 7970, which is marginally better than a 7950.

I think best solution would be the used 280X.
