This isn’t a Red vs. Green so please don’t take it that way and I am not trying to start a flame war but for under 180 Current price at Newegg which video system will yield the best response for EQ2 and Diablo 3 when it comes out, when Played at 1080 on a 22” 1920 x 1080 2ms Asus Monitor. I have checked the best video cards for the money but those are all based on games I don’t play, when you check the bench marks in some tests Red win and other green wins.
I have been very happy with my GTX 295 All settings are pretty much MAX with no issues
EQ2 has a Designed for NVidia Splash so I assume it is going to run slightly faster/better on Green.
I was considering Dual 460 1 GB as an upgrade (sub 200 bucks on sale after rebates) truth be told I haven’t used Red since 2900XT
In the price range I could get any of the following

GeForce GTX 560
Radeon HD 6870
Radeon HD 6950 1 GB
Dual GTX 460 1 GB
Dual 5770/6770

(System 15-2400K 8 gig 64 GB SSD if I got Green I’ll get something with the NF200 Bridge if not I’ll get something with crossfire 8/8 Powersupply has plenty of good clean juice)

The 560Ti would be a good bet I think...

Or if brave and want to go the AMD route, could get the 6950 which I think can still be unlocked to a 6970? As far as single card goes that's about as good as it gets, anyway, without going to the silly money....
