    If This card Is the one you are asking for, it's a great deal at that price.
    Hey Uggorthaholy!

    Sounds great! Thank you for the response. I was confused on whether or not to buy the one with eyefinity or not, and you just clarified that for me! I appreciate it!

    As soon as I get this video card installed! I will be ready to go for the game.

    I'm excited.

    As people have stated, the 6870 is a fine card an should suit you well for D3. Eyefinity is needed for multi monitor setups. Most of te 6870s you see should have this anyway. 150 for a 6870 is a great deal. I just purchased this for my son In Feb and it was 180. Note the fan on this one is a little loud for me.

    The XFX Black Edition (the one with two fans) is a lot quieter and the most silent 6870 model. It is a bit hard to come by these days though... If you see one for a reasonable price, get it!

I have a GTX570, but i will probablty upgrade to the one they release next or possibly the one after.
    the guy is looking at a 150$ card and you suggest an old, very specific use dual gpu card that comes in well over 600?$? hm. most people wouldnt suggest a 590 even if it was in their budget.

    I'm running the Diablo III beta maxed out on a GTX-295, I can't imagine any modern-day card wouldn't be able to do the same. A 6870 seems within your comfort level as far as price point, and it should be totally fine.

    I'm not saying it's the only reason but it sure is one of the reasons.. If you're having issues you should at least give a little voltage tweaking (or underclocking) a try and confirm it's not the problem.
