Hi guys, I need help choosing a graphics card that is capable of supporting a 22" monitor at 1680x1050 and a 37" HDTV at 1080p. I will be using the 22" mainly for gaming and the 37" for watching movies and odd gaming session.

Looking to spend £150 max but would like to spend lesser if the option is their. I have a few cards in mind, one being a HD 5770 1gb or a gtx 460 768mb. I know the 1gb version would be better but im on a budget unfortunatley.

My setup is:
Intel E8400 @ 3.00 GHz
Asus P5N-D 750i sli mobo
4gb DDR2 ram
Windows XP 32bit
700W psu

Any help much appreciated, thanks.
 
will the 786mb version be enough to give me reliable fps on a 1080p? If so i might get the palit on offer. Or i could wait for a price drop on the 1gb version, god knows when that will be though.

Im liking the xfx 5830 2 year warranty + free game inall sounds tempting, i'll have to read a review on that card.

Thanks for replies
