:Hey fellas! I posted awhile back about which card to get, and im still on the edge with it. First I will list my specs, then other information.

CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition
MOBO: ASUS M4A87TD EVO AM3
RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaw Series 4gb (will get 8 eventually)
CPU Fan: COOLER MASTER V6 DynaLoop
HDD: Western Digital Caviar Black 7200 RPM
Power Supply:XFX 650W XXX Bronze Edition

I'm looking to play games such as: Guild Wars 2, Diablo III, Skyrim, etc, on highest settings (or as high as possible).
Also, I plan on using my 32" tv as a monitor, if that matters.

I plan on buying nVidia, just because I have always used it and they've never given me problems.
Here are the cards I've boiled it down to:
Here or Here or
Here or
Here

My spending budget is about $160-$200

Also, how big of a difference is 192 bit to 256 bit?

Lastly, in your opinion, how is MSI's and eVGA's customer support?

Thanks in advanced-
ER

What's the resolution of your TV?

It's generally better to go for a single more powerful GPU than multiple less powerful GPU's since SLI/Corssfire performance is very driver dependant.
 
If your willing to spend 300 bucks on two lowerend cards. Just get a 6950 or GTX560. You cant SLI on that board, so later on if you plan on crossfire (but the second slot is only X4) you would be better off getting the 6950
