Im building a new gaming Computer - Will this Graphic card work good with S&S?
Glass¹:
Here is the Graphic Card.
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6870 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card
Altiris:
Yeah this will work. Also, I'm not sure if this works but I'm guessing by theory since the shaders are made by pixels, a card with more pixle rate will be better.
You can look at a website, hwcompare.com this website let's you compare graphics cards and which are better by their specs. It also tells you the pixle rate and stuff. You should look at some other radeon and Nvidia cards, this one will do the job though.

Alright. The computer I have picked out. (Parts I mean) Was picked by a friend, He knows alot about building computers and he asked me for a budget and I said $900-$1,200. It all turned out to be $914 (Useing Newegg). Anyway. I'll ask him about maybe looking at one thats a bit better.

I have that GPU, make sure you get the right CPU with it otherwise it'll bottleneck.
That's what I've done.
Awdax:
Yeah, if you're going with that GPU I recommend this for the CPU. Pretty sure it won't bottleneck.
Intel Core i3-2100 Dual-Core Processor 3.1 GHz 3 MB Cache LGA 1155 - BX80623I32100
