Been a real long time since I posted here, how's everyone doing? =]  I been looking to get a new graphics card for my system I recently built. Pretty much built a gaming computer without a graphics card (as I ran out of $$$) Haven't really kept up with the current hardware and wasn't sure which manufacturer to go with. NVIDIA / ATI ?! Not looking to spend too much, probably 150ish maybe 200 if I have to.

Thanks in advance for the help !

i currently use this one http://www.newegg.co...N82E16814102888

i play every game at 1920 x 1200 on the highest settings and getting very playable framerates usually around 60-80fps  i used to be an nvidia fanboy but since i've started using ATI cards ( my first was a HD4790 ) i've been hooked on ATI they just perform so well especially considering how much less they cost than NVidia

if it were me with that budget i'd probably go with one of these picks
