I need help finding the BEST video card for my new PC.?

I am building from the ground up the ultimate PC with everything and anything that may be needed or called upon because I am definitely a computer freak and need the best processing power and RAM available to compute and do really what i need. With Price set aside i've decided on just about everything from the brand to the model of component and i've made no stops or second bests when it comes to this new PC i'm building. Liquid Cooling system, Maxed Out RAM, Intel i7 Extreme Edition processor. the Works basically, but one of the few things that i've been stuck against in finding is the best Video Card. I haven't yet decided upon the Mother Board i want but of course it needs to be compatible with my video card and what not but after searching a bit among video cards i've found a few options and to be completely honest I Don't know Much when it comes to video cards and that's where I need help... I have already planned for the monitor to be replaced with a 40in LG 2X HDMI HDTV 1080p wide screen television and what not. Therefore i want to get the absolute most out of the TV i already have and want the ultimate in video processing. Not only for multimedia, video editting, game play, and online video gaming, but also for movies, media and what not. I've found a few video cards and need help picking among them my first option is an XFX FeForce 8800 GTX video card with a mear 768 MB of memory and i planned on getting an extra large case to accomidate it along with a second one of the same type. Or an EVGA GeForce GTX 295 CO-OP Hydro Copper video Card housing 1792 MB of memory. This card while having more memory does take up less space and requires a smaller power supply but according to reviews the XFX model seems to be the favorite and for about a hundred or so dollars more brand new. I definitly need help finding the best Video Card availbe and pretending that price is not an object could someone please shed some light on the pros and cons of different video cards and what would pull out as the Best for not only Gaming but everyday use? Whether it be the XFX GeForce 8800GTX or the EVGA GeForce GTX 295. If you know of any other video card that is better please let me know and please provide a link to where i can purchase it and also about it's stats and what-not. Any other information about what you would reccommend for "The Dream Computer" would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for everything.|||Please dont put all info. in one go. It only deters ppl. from answering questions. I hav first hand experience on that.



So u want a maxed out gaming rig i suppose?



I suggest intel skulltrail motherboard. It supports 2 intel core 2 extremes ie 8 cores.



Further it can accomodate ati radeon and nvidia graphics cards which you can run side by side.



And i think it also supports sli and crossfire.



If you want your own computer config. I suggest you go by gtx 295. It would definitely be better than 8800 gtx.



Only if i had such a pc......|||Quad performs better than i7 when you only use 1 GPU, but performs better than quad when the PC have multi GPU, so if you can buy 2 GTX 295 to quad sli, then go ahead and buy it, but make sure the mobo support quad sli and have sufficient power supply(1000 watt)|||Go to Newegg.com for all your computer building needs. Best price, customer service, etc.



Look up their video card and you will see consumer reviews that will tell you all the ins and outs of mother boards, video cards and TVs.



As for the LG TV for your monitor, you want 2ms response time. LG has the new 240hz LCDs that have that. They are sweet and perfect for your applications.|||Get the ATI 4870X2 and if moneys not an issue get two of them. they kill them two you mentioned above. 8800gtx is kinda old now and this outperforms the GTX 295 take a look at what the people say|||Tri-SLI with three Geforce 285s.

not two 295s, cause the quad SLI there always stumbles over the number of separate cards, which the driver is not really great at handling...



so use three 285s, preferably with the EVGA X58 or ASUS P6T7 WS SUPERCOMPUTER or ASUS P6T6 WS Revolution.
