Aside from the processor, that seems to be the most asked question in various threads. Perhaps we can assemble the opinions/recs here?

This card is about 60$ and it runs 3 monitors. I don't currently use this card, read the reviews from verified owners on that site.

Thought this might be a good thread to ask this: I have a new Dell with AMD Radeon HD 6450 1GB DDR3 video card - it will run 2 monitors. I need to run 4...is it easier/cheaper to add another card that will run 2 or replace this card with one that will run 4?

If you have the slots/space to run 2 cards then if you have a problem you still have a couple of monitors. The other issue would be how much each card draws energy wise relative to your power supply.
