my NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Gigabyte) 1GB broke, what is a good card to replace and upgrade it?

Price: 100-200€

System:

CPU
Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3.30GHz
Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
RAM
8,00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 668MHz (9-9-9-24)
Motherboard
ASUSTeK Computer INC. P8P67 (LGA1155)

Thanks for answers!
 
Solution
You could use a fairly decent videocard with that CPU and motherboard, depending on your power supply. On the low end, a GTX 1050 will do. With 2gb of vram, you will see limits on settings you can use at 1080p with newer games. A 1050 Ti is the middle ground solution. It uses low power, has 4gb, and is faster. Something like an RX 470 or 570 or Nvidia 1060 would be the best possible choice, with downsides. They cost more and use more power. So if you have to buy the card and a power supply for it, it's going to be over your budget.

edit: I forgot how much power the 560 uses. You have the power supply, just make sure of the connectors. You don't want to buy a card that requires an 8 pin if your power supply only has two 6 pins.

I would say go for a gtx 1050 ti. its the best Nvidia GPU for the least amount of money and will be an excelent upgrade to the GTX 560 ti
I personally am upgrading to this from my 750 Ti
