Looking for a midgrade replacement Graphics card

bking

Looking to replace my graphics card that has started to display a vertical line that appears to be pre-fail. I'm struggling to find a capable, reliable but not wallet-breaking card. I don't game, but do watch HD videos and do software development/office tasks. I'm running Linux Mint.

I currently have a eVGA GeForce GT 740 4GB card driving 2 monitors via DVI-D connectors, and I'd like the new card to also have 2 of the same connector, either DVI or HDMI. Not sure why cards now come with an assortment of connectors, but I'm not looking to have 2 different paths to 2 identical monitors if I can avoid it.

 

So, far the front runner is this, but I'm a little bummed that it apparently won't drive 2 monitors at 60hz. I'm willing to go higher of course, but there seems to b a real price gap between this card and low-end gaming cards.
