GPU Upgrade options

[nars2k]

Hey guys,

Well I currently have a Geforce 8500gt 256mb that I overclocked, its served well but I think it's time for an upgrade. I would rather upgrade to a newer card rather than go SLI with this card. I have a 300W ps but I plan on upgrading it to 500W. What are some video cards that you would recommend. I don't want to spend more than $150 and would prefer to stick with nvidia. I am using a 42" LCD as my tv and monitor, I do some video editing and also some gaming.

Input is much appreciated

GTS450 or GTX460 768GB would fit your budget. Then there is HD5770. What is the other hardware?

If you can count the rebate this is a very good card.

But as you said,a PSU upgrade is nessesary for a new GPU.
