Looks good. I think you want atleast a 5770 video card which is basically a 5870 with half of the stream processors shut off. The 5870 I have will play Crysis on high. How does the 5670 rate? It may not be enough horsepower to play games at the monitor's native resolution with high levels of detail. Check out the reviews first. http://www.techspot.com/review/240-ati-radeon-hd-5670/
