Re: what card do i get????
Some more info is needed , post your budget cap (gpu's can get up to 500 alone easy so were not going to post every single gpu that exists.) Also post which games you plan to play. And also post your power supplies make , model , and wattage. Basically if it's using a generic 300w or something you pretty much won't be using it.

Re: what card do i get????
Well on the less expensive side of the scale you could get a 9600 and a corsair 550w.
http://www.dabs.com/products/xfx-gef...ml?q=9600%20gt http://www.dabs.com/products/corsair...corsair%20550w Or if we take full advantage of your budget you could get a gtx275 and a corsair 650 http://www.dabs.com/products/xfx-gef....html?q=gtx275 http://www.dabs.com/products/corsair...corsair%20650w However for both of these make sure you have a decent case with enough airflow to support them.
