Hi. I'm putting together a second computer that I want to do so occasional gaming on. I'm looking for recommendations about what GPUs will give best bang for buck at this time. Budget is at max $50 after rebates for the GPU.
System Specs:
2.66 Ghz Core2Duo E6700
4 Gb Corsair 800Mhz DDR2 Ram
P5BW-LA (Buckeye) MoBo: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&docname=c00783637
400W Power Supply
500 Gb WD Caviar Blue
I intend to play at somewhat low resolutions. 1240 to 1680 range.
Want to run games such as Bad Company 2, Starcraft2, L4D2
Currently looking at 4650 for $33

Saw a good deal on a GT240 for $35 a while back, but can't find that deal anymore.
