I recently purchased this HP computer from Office Depot and I'm looking for your suggestions for the BEST/MOST COMPATIBLE graphics cards for my system. Keep in mind, most of my gaming is Counter Strike:Source....

AMD PHENOM 9650 QUAD CORE 2.3 GHz
Vista 64-bit OS
8 GB RAM
600 GB Hard Drive
20" LCD Monitor

I just upgraded my power supply to Antec's Earthwatt 650W...

I was looking at the BFG GeForce GTX 260 (Maxcore 55) 896 MB GDDR3...$169.99 at Best Buy..
 
If you chose I'd suggest going to www.newegg.com to see your options. I'd go with an ATI card cause I'm an ATI fan. But umm If I went with an ATI card, I'd go with the 4870 since its quite fast and able to compete highly with the 260 but also quite a bit cheaper.
