I heard lot about Nvidia but not ATI. So please help me out which one to choose and model number.

I like to play Crysis Warhead and i checked my system on http://cyri.systemrequirementslab.com/srtest/analysis.aspx for that in Video Card I need RAM - 640 MB, Hardware T&L, Pixel Shader version 3.0 and Vertex Shader version 3.0.

So please advise graphic card which will play Crysis Warhead.

What screen resolution do you play at?

Your resolution is quite low and spending that much on a video card without a monitor upgrade wouldn't make sense. I'd grab an HD5770. Really it's overkill for your resolution but it will last you a while and also do ok if you get a better monitor in the future.
