GTX 460 which brand/model??

From reading posts it seems 6870s do not have as good compatibility with alot of newer games. Is that right? They also run hotter than 460s?

So I'm quickly realizing as a holy priest I have almost zero ability to solo farm mats and primals. So I want to roll another character already but I want to have something fun to play also. I'm thinking lock, druid, rog, warrior, pally? What do you think? I'd be 2-boxing, pl'ing with priest.
