I am currently using the on-board gpu my Gigabyte motherboard has, which is Radeon HD 4200. I'm looking to get a discrete gpu in the price range of $100-170. What I'm looking to get out of a graphics card is the ability to connect to three different monitors, one of which needs to be HDMI. My third monitor, the only one I really need to be HDMI, will be connected to a home theater receiver which is hooked up to an LCD TV and surround sound. The only reason I want it to be HDMI is because I have a few of those ports on the receiver and because I'm hoping it will transfer sound from my PC to the receiver as well. The other two monitors consist of an LG with VGA and DVI ports and a Samsung 26" tv with HDMI, DVI, and VGA. I'm looking for a reputable card with a good warranty and although I don't game much, I watch a lot of movies in 1080p. Also, I might start playing Diablo 3 so I would like something that could support the max graphics settings.

I think that covers all of it. If it makes any difference, I'm planning on adding an SSD ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227706 ) and a new CPU ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103935 ).
Thank you
