Need to replace my 7 year old Evga GeForce GTX 560Ti. Overall it was a good card for what I do and the grand kids gaming. I have no ideas about today's cards and could use a little guidance. Absolutely must be dual monitor for my two 27" monitors

You did a good job filling out your system specs, although I didn't see a power supply listed. It really depends on what games you play and what you want the card to do, and as awlays how much do you want to spend.
Nvidia just released some new cards which means the older 10xx cards have dropped in price. They are very capable cards and I have seen some pretty good prices recently. I would suspect you may see more price drops as soon as the new cards hit the retailers.
PSU: Antec EarthWatts EA-750 Watts
Have been looking at the10xx series and your right prices are good
How much would you want to spend on a graphics card? Your system will be fine with a GTX 1070.
I updated from a GTX 560 to a GTX 760 now have a GTX 1060 3GB (money problems!) as you can see from my specs it fits well in a system build in 2012.
A 1070, like one of these will play any game out and do pretty much anything you want. https://smile.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForc...ts=p_89%3AEVGA
I'm an EVGA fan, but that's a good price for the performance it gives. Depending on your needs and budget you can go up from there.
The 1070 is a fairly high-end card. If it's too expensive, you may prefer a 1060. Or even a 1050.
Your PSU is adequate to run any single card on the market.
Like a kid in a candy store! If there was only one, selection would be simple!
I have been very happy with my 1070 but if that is too much for you, like others have said, consider the 1060.
For US$380 to $400 you can get a somewhat overclocked GeForce GTX 1070. I've got two systems here at the house with MSI models installed of that card. Both work very well, but nobody here is a hardcore gamer (my son is pretty game-happy, but isn't really into the highest end stuff right now).
HTH,

Here's a Newegg search to show you what's available in that price range: GeForce 1070 GTX - Newegg.com
