get a 470 if you have the money and use the 260 as a phys x card and you can enjoy every game out there smoothly with phys x

Yeah, I'll do either this or the dual 460's. Just have to wait till the money gets here to decide.

Well, I'm glad I was able to narrow this all down. Thanks guys! Now as soon as the cash comes in I'll know what I'm going to do.

Well, I have a 750 watt PSU. That should be enough, I mean, if it can SLI two GTX 470's then it should be fine with this. This is a difficult decision,...

My current card is an EVGA GTX260 1257. So, I do have an Nvidia card. One thing I heard was that you can use an ATI card and have the Nvidia card as a dedicated PhysX card, but I do not know which is better. To have it paired with the 470 or the 5870.

So, I am on the fence here between either a 1GB 5870 or a GTX470 for being my next video card. I hear that the 5870 surpasses the 470, but that I will not be able to play Mafia 2 with all the nice PhysX features. I am hearing so many mixed feelings but none that quite answer my question. I just need some help here! Here is the 470 I was looking at:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130554And here are the 5870

Why don't you just check out this page:http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=20&name=LCD-MonitorsThey have search options so you can do exactly what you want! Check what size, resolution, etc. Those are monitors though, but they can get really big and some look better than HDTV's! PS: if you are into that whole 3D thing, this is a very good monitor:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=24-236-092And even if you aren't interested in 3D, that monitor is full HD and has a 120hz refresh rate; so, it is still good in its own right.
