I think the GTX 460 768mb http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127519&cm_re=gtx_460_768mb-_-14-127-519-_-Product

If you can afford $25 more, u can get an HD 6850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161348&cm_re=hd_6850-_-14-161-348-_-Product

The 460 768mb should serve you well at that Resolution.
