ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Needs to be good with professional applications as well as games. I don't play super intensive games. Age of Empires III, Civ V, Flight Sim X, Combat Flight Sim, Minecraft

This will be for a new computer build, I will have an 850w PSU. And again, I'm stressing the 'Professional Applications AND Games'. Fireworks, Photoshop, etc. A video editor like Sony Vegas is in the near future. And I'll have dual 1080p, though I'll only play games on 1 monitor most the time, while having another application on the other screen. I'll also be doing some VmWare if that makes a difference

Thanks!

if you want cards that works on professional application you will look at professional solution such as quadro. did you use CUDA for your application? if yes you might want to look at nvidia cards. something like GTX560 Ti should fit into your budget though it wasn't meant for professional solution. if you're looking for something serious for your professional application you should consider professional solution such as quadro or fire pro

I was kind of looking for something that would be pretty good at both professional applications and games. I'm not sure if such a thing exists however.
