Advice on mobo GPU combo

[tdlver713]

This is my friends pc config.
Processor - AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition Quad core 3.2GHz
Motherboard - ASUS M4A785TD-V-EVO
Graphics Card - Onboard ATI Radeon HD4200
RAM - 2GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
HDD - 1TB Seagate Barracuda 7200.12
Cabinet - XTech mid tower cabinet
CoolerMaster 120mm Green LED power fan + CoolerMaster 2000rpm chasis fan

I was planning on buying a similar build but without the onboard graphics card for the same budget coz i mainly use it for gaming. any sugestions on mobo, GPU combo? or any other configs with similar price/performance ratio?
oh and i have an lcd monitor with 1080p capability in case anyone wants to know.

and a graphics card?

Honestly It looks pretty good. As far as graphics go The HD 4200 IGP is likely not enough for gaming, you may want to look at getting a HD 4670 or HD 4770 for right now. Otherwise go right to an HD5770. Hope that helps.

I guess i could go for a HD 4770 but that would mean i have to get a cheaper mobo.
I am willing to spend around 200$ - 250$ on the GPU and MoBo.
Sorry i didnt mention this before.

I would mostly use my PC for gaming and watching HD videos.
Also it would be good if the MoBo had that crossfire capability as i might add another card in the future.

So any good combination of GPU/MoBo for this price range?
