Hi, I've had my pc for more than 6 years now and I'd like to upgrade my graphic card. I'm just a casual gamer but would enjoy seeing my pc being able to handle games in medium-high graphic performance; the highest the better of course.

The following is the spec of my pc:
-Intel i7 920 @2.67 GHz ; Max TDP:130 W
Package: Socket 1366 LGA
Core Voltage: 1.248 V

DDR3 6GB of ram
Nvidia GEFORCE GTX 275

Mainboard: Intel x58 chipset
Support Crossfire


I would buy the card for up to 200$ Would go a bit higher (like +20$ )if the card shows a big difference

There are GTX670 and HD7950 for that price range, but they are out of stock which is no wonder. The next best option is r9 270x in my opinion and according to passmark scores.

You can go with a better version of the same card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121802&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Benchmarks show that can run BF3 on ultra, Bioshock Infinite on ultra, BF4 on high with above 50FPS.
