The 200 series are DX10, the 400/500 series DX11. The 460 outta those is the one to get.

$200 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

$270 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

$560 - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

However, twin 470's at $540 would beat the poop outta the new $580 card.

Wouldn't a GTX 460 be even better for all resolutions?

If you talk about performance then GTX285 is the best from all cards above...
But 4xx series are better, less heat, less power consumption and dx.11 capable.

Where does the GTX 460 1gb place?

To OP: On your other thread, the people here already told you that GTX460 is MORE THAN enough to maxed out everything at 1280x1024.

To Notty: thanks man, i didn't read your link before.

Do you really think that a guy on a budget build has $500?!?!?!?!??!?!?!
