Hi everyone...I'm finally ready for a new GPU. My Geforce 9400GT has served me well but is way outdated and starting to show it age. I have a Ga-ep45t-usb3p mobo with a Q8400 cpu, 8gbs of 1600 CL8 crucial ram. 1000w psu. A couple of questions. My board is set up for 2.0 x 16 can I use a 2.1 x16 card? My case is a mid tower Raidmax and is cramped so I would need a "small" card, around 8.5" or so. Any suggestions on which one would fit? I also have 2 monitors and would like to run 3 at some point mostly for Flight Sim X. Cost is always an issue so maybe around 300$ or less. I'm going a litle crazy with all the reviews so I am asking all you pros out there for advice
Thanks in advance
