    Which one to use?

    My current setup:

    Windows 7 Pro 64bit
    Asus M4N75TD Motherboard
    12Gb DDR3 Memory

    Now I have two GPU's I can use in this machine:

    An XFX Radeon HD 4870 1Gb

    or

    An Asus Geforce ENGTX275 896Mb

    I run dual monitors

    I do general gaming so no particular area stands out

    FSX, GTA4, Dirt 3 some older some newer. like I say no real specific area.

    I am not a photo shopper nor do I Fold

    Reviews on both cards look pretty similar so i'm a bot unsure which one I could expect better performance out of.

    I realize these are older cards but they are what I have and my budget does not allow for an upgrade (budget being a new word for wife)

    Opinions?

    Re: Which one to use?

    You don't mentioned what resolution you are running aside from 'dual monitors'. I'd probably go with the 4870 due to the additional VRAM in case your resolution is towards the high end. The 4870 doesn't do eyefinitity, but hydravision helps with configuration over multi-monitors.
