I'd go for an R9 290. That way you are good for a few years, and can play at max settings. It is a $310 card, however. Make sure, if you do opt for the lower price option, you get the R9 280X, not the R9 280, because there are no water blocks on the market for the R9 280. (i cri)

OK here is the GPU. If you want me to I could build you a computer with the parts all put together for a look at the price.
