Need help choosing new graphics card
Newegg.com is your friend. You can sort by price and how well it's reviewed. It's super easy to find the best stuff at the price you want. I recommend checking it out.
You might go though some bottleneck with that cpu, you won't get the all the frames the card is capable of.

The GTX460 is basically the 8800 equivalent of this generation of video cards. I've been using one in my new Core i5 Sandy Bridge computer and it runs everything perfectly. You can pick it up on NewEgg for $125 after mail-in rebate.
" You might go though some bottleneck with that cpu, you won't get the all the frames the card is capable of.I agree. Unless you plan on upgrading your CPU, don't get a GPU that's too expensive because you won't be able to use it to its full capacity.

" GTX550Ti for mid range build.I'm sure you mean the gtx 560ti.GTX570 for a high end build.anything over he 570 is overkill now, unless you are using a big monitor."

The NewEgg Shellshocker is a GTX 460 for $90 after mail-in rebate. This is an amazing deal.
