Well I did a 180... decided on a Sapphire 6950 2GB Dirt Edition... Actually was leaning towards a Sapphire 6870 Flex, but since wanting to run 3 monitors off one card I went ahead and moved up to the 6950. I actually looked for a reference card version but they are hard to find now...

Yeah I am leaning towards a 6870 1GB, roughly $120 cheaper than the 6950 2GB I am looking at, and only 11-16% less in various theoretical benchmarks... The more I think about it most of my gaming nowadays takes place on PS3 and 70" Samsung anyway...

Hmm, honestly I'm only gaming on the single 26" widescreen... Hadn't though much of three displays for gaming, since different formats (other two are 20" 4:3). If its possible I guess that could be cool though ;)

Background, previous system was HP 9400 with limited expansion/ps capabilities. Original 1800 card died do I replaced about 6 mo ago with what at the time was about all the PSU could handle (350watt, no PCI 6pin), which is a HD5670... Fast forward to now, HP died, it was 3 years old figure...
