uh, save up some more. if you had a budget of about 100-110 quid there's a few cards that would fit the bill. gonna be a bit difficult to 1080p dual monitor game for under 80 quid. unless someone's put up a lising for a rediculously cheap gtx 970

 

see if you can find a cheap second hand R9 280, or try a 750Ti because I know for a fact that they're becoming cheaper now that the 950 has come out. probably looking at about 100-110 for a good one (reccomended brands of evga, msi and gigabyte for the 750Ti, i ran a MSI one for quite a while)

 

if you can stretch it - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/EVGA-GeForce-GTX-750-Ti-graphics-card-GPU-2-GDDR5-Superclocked-/262043359788?hash=item3d03005a2c

 

a 280, the postage is 20 quid but it looks okay - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MSI-R9-280X-GAMING-3G-Radeon-R9-280x-3GB-384-bit-GDDR5-/181877042357?hash=item2a58b76cb5

Not trying to run the game on both monitors at the same time btw, if that's what you thought.

Thanks for the recommendations I'll give them a look later
