Hello, I was wondering if i could get some help finding a graphics card that would suit this setup.

CPU: Intel i7 3770k @3.5ghz, ~3.9ghz
Memory: G-Skill Ripjaw (4x4GB) 16gb
Power Supply: Antec 850 HCP
Mother Board: Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UP5 TH
HDD: Crucial M4 128GB SSD
Case: Corsair Obsidian 650D
Cooling: Stock case fans
Monitor: Connects via DVI or HDMI


I don't mind if its an ATI/AMD or Nvidia graphics card. I would like something that works well for 1080p video playback and games.

The computer is located in a room with minimal cooling and air flow so something that runs somewhat cooler under load would be preferred. Willing to spend around the $300 mark AUD. (about $250 USD when you consider the mark up for our markets)

I hope i have provided enough information, if i haven't i'm more than happy to fill you in more.

Thanks for any help and ideas given.

Rob

I hear that AMD will be bringing out a new line with new architecture within the next month with Nvidia soon to follow.
Has anyone heard anything about performance and costs of the new cards and if it would be worth me waiting. Ideas?
